Hey everyone. well i was thinking of going turbo and still am, but i wanted to know what kind of hp would i have if i got the howell 2.2 short block with 10.5 compression. with a ported cylinder head and a great topend and cams, with all bolt ons. cold air intake 60mm TB, Indy Mainafold, Headers, TesT pipe, Catback, UDP,Power Pully Set, AF/X ECU. just wondering also what times to expect if i did do this. also tranny mods too, lightend fly wheel and stage3 clutch. Anyhelp would be thankful

save yourself some time and money. if you get the howell bottom end kit, turbo (either stages), injectors, and s-afc, you'll have a killer setup and spend less than doing all motor work. stock bottem end is believed to hold around 8 but not more. built bottom end will hold 10 without upgrading the fuel injectors and not having a better sfmu (turbo guys, correct me if anything is off). once you got that, 15 psi should be a chievilbe after upgrading the injectors and sfmu and having a s-afc to tune it right. plus, with the turbo, you can always throw in turbo cams and still do headwork. just an idea. dino and others will be able to help out alot more than i will. once again, turbo guys and motor guys, please correct anything i said ifi am off. i'm not the expert.
later
