For roughly $2k we (Marshall) could put you at a safe, consistent, and reliable 325whp.

turbocharged... mmmm... think about it

325 isn't enough I'm looking to spend $4-5K on my turbo set up

Wish I could get a loan but I can't right now... If I could find a reliable roomate then hell i'd move out of this place into a nice duplex and cut rent in half and maybe....

u might as well just go with a 150 shot wet kit.. just get a nice fuel pump..

save money and be fast when you want to..

Can't afford TT insurance.. Swap will cost about $8k just for the motor and tranny..For that I could have one hell of a single turbo on my N/A with good upgrades..

I can put LSD on my 5 speed.. Most people have told me 6th gear is sorta pointless anyways :shruggs:

Thumbs up Re: Who would win?

nah im not sayin get a TT or swap, I'm just wondering how much punishment that engine can take.. i mean obviously some being a forged inline 6, but are you thinkin about building it? not sure if your gonna get much more than 325 whp reliably, but thats just a guess, I really dont know :/

*EDIT: ps: build up your own turbo setup.. dont buy kits, thats like throwin money out the window..
