    Pros/Cons F7Rt or B18ft

    Hi guys, im looking in to a bit more power on my R5, i currently have 174 hp in my R5 with a cammed F7R Megane engine in it (with VEMS ecu). But i would like around 250 hp.

    So im thinking turbo..
    But should i go with a turbo conversion for the F7R or a B18FT

    Ive heard people running 250 hp on stock internals of a B18FT is that true?

    B18ft I'd like to see who's running 250bhp around 230bhp yes I'd agree but look at your budget that's what it's always about 2k or 4-5k
