    its actually not too bad a motor. There is a fellow on the turbobricks website who built one up and turbocharged it. Just stay away from the earlier model, known for eating cams.


    Makes around 800ft/lbs torque and 900hp on 20lbs boost. Very fast.
    My car is factory....



    Every single performance part and or modification it has was made in a factory somewhere.
