Hmm....i thought you said you did alot of research? Anyway, i dont see anyone putting out 280hp on a 420a "safely" on stock internals. But i do see many people putting down 350+whp on stock 4g63 engine safely. Dont believe everything you read at the HRC site(assuming thats where you got the 280hp) Anyway, just do what Jeff said if you want a turbo.

Not trying to sound like a dick, but this thread made my day
