well after debating with myself i decided to stay N/A i wanted to turbo but decided not to. so far im runing intake and exhuast, weapon-r and Injen exhust and i plan n getting headers and pulleys soon. so what else should i get or do??

 

hows the weapon-r doing for you?
thinking of getting it myself just trying to get advice

 

before you decide on your all motor set up, what are your ultimate power goals and what is your budget?

if your power goals are low, and your budget is big, sure, go all motor. at most, you can get like 200 whp or so, with intake, headers, exhaust, pulleys, high compression pistons and internals, and standalone tune to run on 91 octane.

but that is about 10 grand right there. put that into a turbo, and you would have well over 300 whp instead.

maybe this could help

 

its good i had it for a while ive been thinking about gettin a weaponr secret weapon intake with the ram air add on but ive been also looking into gettin and injen or fujita..........as far as power goals you know i really dont know i mean i think pushing it to 200 its as far as i wanna go. i mean i really wanted to turbo but i decied not to cuz of the cost with a tune and e mange and all that it would have been too much.

 

im doing the same thing, and ive priced it, no labor cost cuz ill be doing it, it will come out to about 2000$ max for everything, and ill push more than 200 and be more reliable

 

what are you going to be doing?? yeah most of the labor i can have peps in my team help me with too.

 

yeah thanx for the link if my eyes warnt buring from this screen id reed it LOL!! i bookmarked it for read later!!

 

piston, rods, springs, cams and fuel rail. then from there wait for a intake manifold

 

Iv'e spent 7 g's on my turbo set-up and i am at 330whp with no problems.

 

Go contact TCPete hes prolly the farthest in NA tuning right now.

 

cool ill def do that when i ge thte chance!!! thanx for the headz up!!

 

Be realistic, u went a little to far away in the number....

3k to 7k is more believable.

Headwork:
Valves, Springs, Port & Polish: 1,500
High Compression Pistons: 500
Standalone: 400 ~ 2500
Misc:
Flywheel
TB
IM
Tuning
Theres like 7K and you should have a reliable N/A competitor.
And for fun, skip the TB, IM, and just do a custom ITB setup.

 

Yeah sounds good, but ill save all this tuning, for my S2K!!!!! i should be able to get one within 3 years lol.

 

yeah, but thats assuming you can do all the labor by yourself without any help.

 

Well, what are cars for? Learning. Machine shop would be the must pay for most of the people with a project car. :p

 

dude! where do you buy your parts, holy crap 10k are you serious? most people on this site could duplicate tc pete's setup for 4k, and he has VERY close to 200whp,and its not tuned.

 

true.
