    there is alot to take into consideration with this question...is the motor still strong? what kinda power are you looking for and most importantly what is you budget...the budget is most important right now becuase if you cant afford to do it right you might as well not do it...be prepared to spend a healthy chunk of change you wont get it done reliably or right for $700 on ebay.

    great post. He has been thru it all. also, before boosting any motor, do a leak down test to see how healthy the motor is.
