Frank you are closest, As I understand its as follows

Grp A car;
Max.Power(bph/Revs) 118 bhp @ 7400 rpm

Kit car;
Max.Power(bph/Revs) 155 bhp @ 7950 rpm

but i'm happy to stand corrected if anyone knows different.

Oh i thought this was a joke...lol thought he meant the CG13 against a 160bhp engine

i would guess the kit k11 had a billet crank, 8 injectors and about £250k,s worth of other goodies too

The CG13 as standard would be a group N car (means standard trim) so you cant do that much to it, standard engine, box, all trim inside. So you are right with that power difference!

i would guess the kit k11 had a billet crank, 8 injectors and about £250k,s worth of other goodies too

thats rights abby off here now owns that car, its some bit of kit, carbon all over, 6speed sequential box spec is on his intro below

i know my english little sucks...:down:

so, I'd know the differences between the engine of a K11 with gr.a specs and the engine of a K11 kit car.
I see the photos on abby's 3d, that car kit has a HUGE airbox , and here you talk about 8 injectors, sequential gearbox etc etc...
edit
I red the specs in the kit car 3d... very impressive
