Yes it is N/A, because it has to be with rally driving. And yes, it needs to be less then 2000cc.. Pssht, don't tell anyone

Yeah it is. It's a good engine because it's got the 531 head and I also think that if not all at least almost all got the stronger rods. (I'm not 100% sure about the first year models because -90 there were still weaker rods available also) VX3 (same as VX but retarded 3 degrees) cam also but that's just toned down V cam, same intake specs but exhaust is very restrictive "lo-po" with X-cam specs. Marketed as a "sport" cam for USA and other places which had strict emission regulations.

Is the stock header usable for some decent N/A power? In the homologation I read it has to be the original one. Don't know how strictly the Dutch technical comission (for rally) is.

In the morning a stage on a old military base. In the afternoon a forrest stage, really awesome but pretty dangerous too. It was raining and very slippery.

Haven't pics, there where some photographers, but nothing online (yet?)

We drove a old mitsubishi colt, which was good, because its totalled now. No I didn't, it was my mate :lol:

So, lets go on with the 360 :]
