Block questions
I know that the rods are forged and i was just wondering how much Hp you think they can make before replacing them? I thinking about going turbo and wanted to know. Also who sleeves blocks? You think 350hp is enought to for a Daily Driver? I dont want crazy HP just a nice power band. I was thinking maybe 9.5:1 compression

Re: Block questions (Soon_2b_evil)
there is a head gasket made by a company the produces a turbo kit for the S. it lowers compression to 9.5:1 and the block is said to hold 450rwhp... given that it is tuned to the absolute best and that it has every damn upgraded fuel component on the planet. 
if you turbo an S, be ready to spend countless hours of tuning. i mean tons!!!
if you buy an already built kit from UR or DRAG, then you will see more sucess than if you build one. one guy on s2ki spent over $9,000 without doing internals in tuning and replacing parts. he finally got it to a reliable daily driver. it took like a year to do this... so you better have patience and deep pockets
i'm gonna find the link to the thread, so you can read it if your serious. i'm not sayin don't do it at all, but i just want you to know what your getting into if you do...
