Jerry/.
Just bought a 9000 cse turbo 1994 2,3
Look on the web for: Abbott Racing, in essex, UK, they will be more than happy to at least give you some expert advice as to how to balance extra power with hardware.you can e mail them maybe, a chap called Giles
After all, you can get your engine management system upgraded to add a lot of extra HP, but power needs to get through efficiently. performance filter,sports dump valve if a turbo, and a bigger bore exhaust will all help if you are producing extra power.
What I have found is to upgrade wishbone and anti roll bar(sway ?) bushes, or even stiffen or lower with better springs is better that just a few more horsepower,after all, sticking a car on the road and it feeling like its on rails means you can get more benifit from power available, be it standard of upgraded.
Dont get ripped off by crazy prices for engine management upgrades though, or exchange units,it is a couple of hour work, strike up a deal !!!
Hope of a little help
