Default N/A BUILD...FUTURE MAYBE TURBO?

hey guys, i drive a EK4 B16A2, most effective parts are the header and catback. mainly stock.

My questions is,

im planning on the edelbrock performer X IM, with the TB (65MM).
Now im busy with an N/A build and maybe in a couple a years ill boost it up.
for street/strip applications.

1. Can i keep this IM, TB setup and use this untill future boost plans.
2. Can i use a bigger size setup for N/A build, 70 or 75 MM


i would be glad with some answers! THANX...

Are you going to be running bigger cams and upgraded vavletrain?

70mm TB on your almost stock setup will do nothing.

yeah...sorry i forgot...thought about BC camshafts, valvetrain & some head work
like valve seat cut & Set length adjusting, valve guide change & reaming, port polish, IM flowing etc...

If your going to boost it later then don't waste money on the N/A stuff..........because you'll just replace almost everything again.

1. yes
2. it will do nothing unless its fully built and 70mm would be fine. 75= way to big.
