I doubt it will be easy and will cost a heap of money. The T4 is a very capable engine and can take tuning very well. I'm spending my money on turning my T4 into a beast.

It won't die if you look after it. Also, if you spend wisely on your car you could have a 275bhp T4 for not a lot of money. That would make a very rapid car. They are a lot lighter than the 850's.

How could you get a T4 up to 275bhp for not a lot of money??

Well it's all relative. I'm probably going to chuck 5K at mine. You could get it to 275 for a fraction of this.
