i agree but I'll have it then I can upgrade later. I'm gonna buy the manifolds off of Johnathan I'm talking to him now about it. i want to coat and port mine before I get my turbo and i don't want any downtime so I'm buying the extra set.

There's a reason why no one does a K04 swap in an LSJ. Because it sucks donkey *****.

I'll go with you when yours is done then decide. It would be great to have around 375 to 400hp

Then you'd might as well buy a proper turbo kit to go with it

Because that plastic intercooler and charge piping won't handle crap with a ZFR

Dollar and time invested is nowhere near the gain unless you do it all properly

Going with the parts i have from my lnf i can upgrade peice by peice later and have a turbo to work from. In the end I just want a fun 7000rpm track car. Revs matter more to me than overall HP. I think its fun reving out an engine so I want it to have good topend

Agreed. Dat linear supercharged powerband for the track all day long. Running my TVS set up on the road course would have been soooo much fun.

Coming out of corners would be nice with a S/C. I'm thinking if I sell the M62 kit I can make some money then throw my parts on. This is my 2nd car i want to do it as cheap as possible.
