You could go stave 2 but get a take off kit from Mongo and have everything done for less than the price of that entire kit, should be only about $1500 total.

I'm definitely leaning towards a supercharger vs turbocharger
I just am not sure on what kind of internal work that would need done for the block to handle the horsepower

If you keep it lower power then you'll be fine and won't have to do anything. If you want more power than about 240 then you'll run into issues.

Orange is Canadia but he no longer has them orange.

I'm talking about a SC take off kit that Mongorat sells in the classifides. It's off of an LSJ and fits 2.2/2.4 motors. You're not going to be able to swap the transmission though, also you can make more power than 240 cheap by swapping in a 06-07 LE5 which had forged internals but then your transmission is the weak link.

Why wouldn't I be able to swap the transmission?, I believe its quite possible n I like the idea of buying a whole new motor but on the other hand I'd like to BUILD a whole new motor . But is 240hp enough for my lil car? How are y'all doing with your power bolts
