Putting the finishing touches on my new turbo kit, and was just wondering if there were any fast american 4cyls out there in Atlanta. My old ion was trapping 105, and I thought it was pretty quick for a bolt-on only car. Looking for 11s@120 with the new setup and just under 400rwhp at 2750 pounds... should be nasty on the road course (its real home) with peak boost at 3300rpm. Anyone out there? :yes:

SVO mustang are extremly quick and reliable and with some minor mods you can havew mid -hi 200's @ the wheels. plus they had much better suspension and were much lighter than all other fox's. im thinkin about gettin one for a daily driver.

Yeah man IDK what kinda numbers to expect. Got a 62mm PTE 57 trim sitting at the house waiting to replace the stock k04, really don't know what i'm goin to see out of it at this new motor is leaps and bounds beyond sr20/4g63 era technology. Should be a hoot though once I crank it up.

pm me how much you'd let the k04 go for

Its sol/sky specific. You'd have to adapt all kinds of stuff to get it to fit anything else.

I have a 2.2 s10, turbocharged. after engine build should be short of 400whp. Almost ls1 swapped it, but they are too common.

Any lsj/lnf ecotec 2.0 will rape face. GM build book has instructions for 1400 hp. As far as bolt-ons. If you stick with bolt ons (stock blower) its hard to get over 300 hp.

Harrop TVS is good replacement for 2,000 you can easily get 350 hp however any more than you will need to replace the pistons and port the head.

I plan on eventually going twin charge myself. Proven 500 hp using the blower to spool the turbo. Problem is if the tranny will hold it. The f-35 is complete garbage.

Shame dodge didnt stick with the skittles they were pretty quick. FWD is still FTL.
