what does or doesn't have to be done to the motor to do this?

 

well it depends if u wanna turbo it with stock internals see how long it lasts blow it up and redo it or just do it right from the start and not have to worry about it

U get what u pay for !!!!! <<<<

 

thats what im asking is what would be the right way to do it

well i dk how much your looking to spend but if u got deep pockets and ur looking to have a pretty reliable turbo car build the motor up (pistons,cams,vavle springs etc) Put the turbo on get a good tune job and u should be ok and ur car should be reliable

 

just what ever it takes to do it right i can't stand for something to f*up..i've heard about if you turbo it causes alot of problems as far as driving it on a daily basis but as of right now just planning for the future thanks for answering my question

 

no promb GLAD TO HELP

 

Just a little advice, try and get everything as close to new as you can and also buy from reputable people. It is a lot of fun and a LOT more heartache. I tried to piece together a turbo car one time and it was WAY more than I thought I was gonna get into.

Just get a good mani, turbo, and tune the **** out of it...

All the other **** can be second rate but plan on upgradeing it. Also don't forget things like clutch and axles. I would hate to see you with snapped axles and a slipping clutch, running 15's...

Good luck with the build and just remember to buildthis car wisely because the motor is not that cheap to replace!

I like the way u think

 

Is this an auto or 5-speed? What are your power/ET goals? Without these goals we cant tell you what to get. Also stock axles are fine. I ran 650whp on stock axles. The trans will take a crap before the axles.

 

What kits are you going with?

hell of a answer

its a 5 speed i'd like to atleast get 220-230hp out of it

 

220-230? then why would u have to worry.. unless thats all the power goals u want NOW but in the FUTURE u want more then i would see a point in building. a decent greddy kit w/ fmic should not run more than 2700.


btw alota ppl do daily drive their S motors at 450whp 15 psi.

Supercharge it and call it a day. No need to build the motor....

 

yea i thought about superchargin it also im kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place cause i know i could just throw a supercharger on and go but i know its gonna take some work to turbo but it just sounds sooo much nicer

What do you mean how would the gas be at? If you are referring to octane, I run 460whp on 93 octane.

lol man i am looking to start a set up like yours, dont think i would baby it either with a turbo, but i do see it doing 31+ since the turbo will make it breath better.
