oh and before i forget, my friend and i are throwing a party tonite at his house up in horizon if anyone wants to go.

o alright cuz if i have money by spring ill probably take that stuff off your hands cuz i just want boost! like i know turbo gives out so much more power but i just love the SC whine. what do you guys think? SC or TC?
it all depends on what turbo you go with, you can get a smaller turbo and make alot of peak power but once it hits high rpms its gonna fall right on its face and lose its efficiency.
Its like the KO4 that comes in the ss/tc, makes pretty good peak power but once it hits those high rpms it drops off.
you wanting to beat modded tc's would have to require you to pulley down maybe to a 2.6 and meth injection for sure since we can get e85 around here.
just get a single pass, griffin HE, meth, 2.6, full exhaust, intake and youll definitely be making some good power.
well stock ss/tc's you can achieve that with the m62 on a 2.8.

Going straight to TVS would require a built block.
Charlie where can we get e85?
but i hear you can get it on base.
and yea i forgot about the whole 2.2 thing...
jn2 i think ran a 2.7 on his 2.2 and everything was fine.

depends...
what kind of turbo would you be looking to run?
what type of manifold, intercooler, intake manifold etc. are you gonna run?
just to give you an idea my turbo **** is gonna cost me somewhere around 3500-4000.
a used m62 setup would probably cost you around 1000-1500

charlie i would suggest a custom turbo mani. like USMCFieldMP, He bought his from 06black which is the" turbo god" on here. Also you didn't here it from me but ottp will be release the own intake manifold for turbo lsj's within a month i think
