Dude. Thats what he has. That is what he paid in total. Just wanted to lay it out there. And many people including me buy parts over time for a build they plan to have done by at a shop. I of course spent much more because I wanted the best and the ability to run higher levels of boost in the future. I know you have to run a shop and all you can do is what you can do. Fine. Thats the way you roll but not I nor many people who put their packages together here on IA. Your gettin way too worked up over this. And true this started out as a NA b series swap vs. d series boosted. But people were putting up dyno charts of 300, 400, and even 500hp d-series builds that were clearly way more than $3,500(built motors). So I choose to adjust the comparison. There. If thats back peddling so be it. And by the way. I've dusted 2 boosted d-series in a b-series swaped EF. That is also an undisputable fact. But go and blow your top over that too.

heres what you said in case you dont remember:


Once again, Show me what turbo you would use to make 300whp and what your $1500 kit would come with. You have to have SOME kind of idea what it takes to make 300whp on a B series to say you can do it for $1500. still waiting........

If you are claiming your "boy" spent $4300 out the door on just a TURBO KIT and a clutch, then i believe that. but thats NOT what you said, you said , I can get a GSR swap for $1500 and a 300whp Turbo kit for $1500. which im telling you is WRONG you cant do it.

This guy has a D series, so it would cost him $2000-3000 for a GSR swap AND $700-1000 for labor. which is what this whole fucking thread is about. Should he swap a B series motor in or boost his D series. with the budget he has i would boost his D series. He wold enjoy it and it would last a long time and he would have spent hi money wisely IMO.

Now, im a shop, and this kid asked a question. from A SHOP STANDPOINT, as i stated earlier, i dont have time to SHOP around for months collecting parts. no shop does. if the customer wants to do it then more power to him. i have no problem with that. You said its $4500 for a BOOSTED B series that makes 300whp and that INCLUDED THE SWAP. Im telling you your WRONG. now if your talking about boosting a D series and boosting a B series and your not factoring in a swap, then yes its around the same price and the B series will make more power. DUH.

So far i have heard you say taht you can build an all motor engine that was totally wrong and didnt even make any sense with what you posted. now your saying you can build a 300whp turbo kit for $1500.

ok man, go ahead, tell me what your kit has, thats all im asking. just list to me the turbo and nijectors you would use along with how many lbs of boost. my feathers arent ruffled, your just posting wrong info and you have given me nothing to think otherwise.


i still have my credit card in hand.........


i agree, and i do offer clutches and flywheels as EXTRA, turbonetics, full race, rev hard, Drag, none of them offer clutch and flywheel upgrades because that is in excess of a TURBO KIT.
