I would give it to this guy in middleburg florida so he could finish his build.



I would buy all the parts needed to turbo the engine then take the 2g's thats left and build the engine

Do more research on forced induction! Read the book Maximum Boost by Corky Bell

After that finish buying the parts you need for a custom turbo kit, get everything on and get it tuned for 280whp or so.

Drop 2,000 in the motor ( pistons thicker head gasket and so on) then, put the other 1,000 on the side for future speeding tickets =P

build up the motor first. turbo cams, sleeved block, rods, pistons, etc. when u get into boost it gets addictive and u just want more. i would build the block and head first and then go wit the custom turbo kit. when u boost to get 280whp ur just gonna want more. i started around that level and now im around 450whp, trust me ull want more
