There should be plenty around. VP is a lot better than VN build quality wise, and as you probably know not all VPs have IRS

Nah that one doesn't make good power. It had head work and a cam before the charger went on so it's high comp and couldn't be tuned well. It was on the dyno the same week as mine and I made 50rwkw more on less boost

It just needs an engine swap with a stock motor and a retune... then it would see around 280rwkw
