GoWesty has published dyno horsepower and torque graphs comparing their
engines to a stock 2.1 engine. Here is a link to the HP graph.
The dyno numbers look impressive and I would love to try a 2450cc setup.
The complete pricing details are not yet available afaik.

Note that it says the performance numbers for their engines are all when
also using their new proprietary fuel injection system on them. They are
not yet offering that new FI system so pricing isn't certain at this
time. The only reason I'd even consider such a purchase is if it would
be compliant with Calif smog rules, which it may well be.
