      I saw plots for one today which were 321bhp and 369lbft, which is quite a bit more torque than both a chipped K24 S2 and a stock RS2. It was a lovely looking car and it is the one that was offered for sale on RS246 (and, I think here too). I believe it is still available and seemed a bit of a bargain to me. The seller is Philip Walker and he is probably registered here. Rs2 front end, Porsche reps, Konis, H&R's quite a few new bits on it too and I think its going for around 7k. Not sure of mileage but it is one quick motor without much lag.

      Remap, manifold (which looked like it was welded together), unique turbo is basically it in the engine bay. Brakes were Alcon but some owners have switched them to another brand for ease of maintenance and spares availability.

      Gadget has one too (he posts on here).

          As far as I know, my nothelle conversion guaranteed 315bhp, delivered slightly more...,
          polished head, modified manifold, remapped ECU?, modified turbo(rs2 unit !) lowered on
          modified H&R springs, alcon 4pot 330mm grooved front discs & 17' wheels with 235/40
          dunlop D40'S (I've changed them to Toyo t1-s), oh & a couple of Nothelle stickers ! the Nothelle tuning company doesn't trade anymore though obviously Nothelle does... I think the original conversion totalled over 6k with everything included, goes up to around 165 mphish

          that's all I can remember

            Hi, I've owned my N300 for 8 years and it's been a joy. Fast (315bhp), reliable (serviced by BR Motorsport in Leamington Spa), and big fun.

            Basically it had around £7000 of work done in Germany by the previous owner (Scott's) and that involved an RS2 spec turbo, special exhaust manifold, polished and flowed cylinder head blah, blah..
            Anyone who can recommend a FIRST CLASS bodywork man in East Sussex/Kent please get in touch.

              Hmmm. I thought the Nothelle turbo was different to the RS2 unit.
