Its a 100% stock original bore block with drop in stock bore Pruven Pistons, balance shafts removed and stock crank.
The head has my usual tricks.
So far its been bullet proof and has perfect compression after the 744 whp pull

Thats pretty interesting. I was talking to Marco at Magnus racing, he's got quite a few options fot the Evo 8's, including the 2.0, 2.1, 2.2 2.3 and 2.4, the 2.1 and 2.4 being a great rod ratio block, the 2.1 is the extreme in that case. I was asking because I dont think such lengths are necessary....but high temp coated pistons and a 2.4L short block is tempting.

In any event - his stuff is first rate so I would trust his advice.
There is more than one way to skin a cat - my secret is just turning up the boost as high as it can go.

It basically is similar to the other Buschur fmic kits - only bigger and nicer
It uses the most technologically advanced fmic core on the market and is superior to any other fmic cores on the market at this time
