It was a 318, M-tech bumpers, 3.5 litre engine from a 535, Megasquirt, home made manifold and boost piping, can't remember the turbo, and no definite power figs yet 
they've not really gone into depth yet, only 'how to' stuff, not specs

Turbo is a T3 of some description, they don't mention where it came from I don't think (well, ebay, but no mention of the car)
Uses and external wastegate, instead of the crappy T3 internal one.
Engine made 211bhp before, and now the '100bhp/litre estimate has proved teasingly close to reality'
No figures, but it does say elsewhere 'Dyno run showed 100bhp increase over stock', so it's between 311 and 350 bhp.
6-7psi boost, standard internals, FMIC, and thats about all the spec they mention
