I can't believe such negativity towards power upgrades. Are most people on here, apart from Charles and Nippymog (who is seriously considering Stage 2), fully satisfied with the 80bhp offered by the stock motor? It does seem very strange when several people have modified their cars with various other 'upgrades' - some of which seem to offer dubious benefit at best
I am planning to do the MTWC challenge next year and will hold back any decision on engine and handling upgrades until the 5 Speeder classes have been agreed.
From the prices I've seen, Stage 2 looks relatively affordable, but Stage 3 (127 cu inch) is way beyond my pocket. Would also be nice to know what you will get in terms of performance gain from the various upgrades - so I am pleased that Morgan aren't selling the kits until proper testing is done and performance data is available.
I'm with the 'happy as it is' crowd. I can wheelspin in two gears as it is..!!
For competition use I can understand the big bores. Not for me though.
