OK. Sounds simple enough, thanks!

If it's the 2.0 Zetec, then there's the option of throttle bodies (probably
cost upwards of 2 grand). That, combined with a nice free flowing exhaust
will see it just shy of 200bhp.
Cheaper would be to dump in the 2.5 V6 from the Mondeo or another Cougar.
Fantastic engines, and with the ST200 upper/lower inlets, throttle body and
management will be, again, just shy of 200bhp. The ST200 engine (SEB)
engines has a slightly higher compression ratio, so the standard SEA 170bhp
one won't ever make exactly the same power. >> Stay informed about: Skinny Legs |

It's actually the 2.5 V6 engine that's fitted.

In that case it must be a deficiency elsewhere that you really need to get
sorted out.
The 2.5 V6 is plenty, really, for UK roads. >> Stay informed about: Skinny Legs |

Not really. 0-62 in 8.2 seconds doesn't exactly tear the arse cheeks off.
ST200 spec should shave a good half second off that, with some appreciable
torque increases through the range. >> Stay informed about: Skinny Legs |

Good grief. Must be a lardy beast.
My Carlton GSi wasn't exactly a lightweight but 200bhp got it from 0-60 in
under 7 seconds (when new <G>)
I take it back. Get a decent car. >> Stay informed about: Skinny Legs |

It is. Most newer cars are. This particular one is based on the Mondeo
chassis, with leather, air con, all the tricks really in the Cougar.

And you think the 3.0 Omega (which superceded the Carlton) would do the
same?

Plenty enough for what ?
