Did you rebuild your bottom end? If not I recommend just getting the N-tercooler from NX or sell it to me :thumbsup

The stock bottom end can only take 250ish HP. I wouldn't risk a 50shot on top of a 200hp turbo motor without a rebuild.

The stock "flywheel" (actually called Torque Plate, afaik...) on a 420a is really light already. When I pulled it, I was amazed I hadn't shattered it yet. It's just this thin piece of metal with teeth welded to it. I guess you could drill holes in it and re-balance it... but not worth it, imo.
