Only reason I can now think of to fit a t5 engine is the sound.

Bit confusing what you mean there, presume you got something round the wrong way.

I'm fitting a B230FT to a 360, it is bolt in(ish) and is more robust than an (efficient) T5. The B230FT can simply be tweaked for no cost to produce about 50bhp more. well not sure what the power level is but it drops 0-60 on a 940 by about 1s to 7.5s. On a 360 I am thinking its getting close to the drive limit.

Yeah I thought the same about that quote Tony. I think he means he's ' NOW fitting a red block engine....'
