if you want those numbers, you might as well turbo it.

im assuming that since your going with that engine your not trying to spend an assload. all those bolt ons are fine/dandy but the only thing going to get you to 180whp with that engine is nitrous and turbo. since you want all motor, then your ONLY option, and in my opinion the best option, is nitrous. Get the zex kit, its next to idiot proof....besides you can get a complete kit around these parts for close to 300.. your all set man.

or like i said sell it all and buy a hype-r...because a hype-r is the only motor you gonna get 180whp with basic bolt-ons and wont require sometype of build

I NEVER SAID I WAS NOT TRYING TO SPEND SOME MONEY, I WANT OT BE REASONABLE. I DO NOT WANT TO TURBO OR SHOT, I DONT HAVE TO GET IT TO THOSE NUMBERS, BUT AT LEAST CLOSE, I WANT TO GET MORE TORQUE, EVEN SACRIFISING HP, BUT LIKE I SAID I WANT MORE OPCIONS, WITH THIS ENGINE. LIKE IS SAID I WANT IT FAST AND FUN FOR DAILY DRIVE, TRYING TO GET TOO THOSE NUMBERS. EVEN IF ENVOLVES LONG HOURS OF WORK.
