You clearly need a super charged S2 exige (preferably yellow; even better with stripes).

I was thinking it might be a good buy but at £5K* , I'll pass.
* I should add that I have no idea of its current value/ worth, but I would have been interested below £2k.

You can s/c them for £800-1k... You'd see around 180bhp on standard injectors, with a non i/c setup...
