Yea, because it's just that easy to twin-turbo a motor with an after-market that doesn't go further than Pep Boys.

Twin turbo is ridiculous, but not because of the aftermarket capabilities. I can't even fit a t3 in the engine bay, let alone two turbos. Realistically, the money would be better spent on building the engine.

The engines back out of the car because I got bigger injectors and headers for it (proof that parts are out there for it). Also doing urethane bushings.

Back to the FL topic, I'll be moved down there at the end of next month if anyone wants to check it out.

It's not my job to teach. PWNED.

With money, you can do whatever you want to a motor. you're not limited to greddy bolt on turbos, super-charger kits, etc. So when someone says that there is no after-market support for high-hp applications, regardless of the motor, they're wrong. If you take any car, any motor to a reputable shop - a shop that knows what they are doing - they can custom design/build/produce anything you want. the only limitation will be your money.

I can't stress this enough.. And honestly I'd rather build to my own specs. :D I got some plans of where to take this thing. But it's not the only car that I am working on.

Hey Chicago, while you have your engine apart, ever considering doing this?

Cryotreatment + ISF processing?
http://www.evansperformance.com/home2.html

I'm just curious to see if anyone has considered this, as well as, if they have, their own experience with it.

I hadn't considdered it. It may look into it when I build the engine up some. I'm looking into places for custom cams if anyone has any suggestions..

I think I'm going to up the boost while I do the headers and new injectors. I smell a sweet spot coming shortly!

Anyone know of any good/great machine shops in/near Orlando?

I'm just going to order the pulley's now to make it simpler.. Drunk ordering is the worst though..

If it was covered I apologize... but what was done with the stock motor? Sold off?

I'm sorta searching for a set of connectors for the coil/ignitors... Having no luck and it was suggested I check in with those swapping out their stockers for bigger and better

I can be reached on aim at Splitime.

Nice work btw

That V6 is not that different in weight from the 2AZ. It's been discussed here before.
