Actually, Peter... you said you had money for a turbo, why don't you build your motor up? If you have the money and could make some time, I think it would be awesome to see what a supercharger would do on an engine like garm's but keep the 10.0:1 compression... or maybe even bump it up to 11.0:1.

Cali yaris was running I think only 10psi and at 180 whp non built motor and ran fine for a year. I am at 8psi and could add acouple more lbs of boost with an overdrive crank pulley or a fixed pulley. Tuned and it could reach 170whp I think. Never know....but i'm going to find out in due time. :)

I do have the money, but definately not the time. I'm a full time student and I work construction. I won't be the man to be doing a built motor anytime soon.

If you coud get to 170 s/c'd then that would seem good. I thought a turbo would just be a better gain and leave you more powerful in the final result. Na poop, I meant pulls up. Figured turbo will catch and eat a s/c in most cases. Let me know.

I deleted it because I was over it. Chinocharles probably deleted his info on his car. He pretty much said he had 180whp (according to ZPI's dyno ) and he finally dyno'd it and found out it made 145whp. lmao. He also deleted the info because he had a hissy fit and got banned from the forums. lmao x2.

Well the turbo can only pull up when it spools up. hehe

If I ever blew my engine up (which could be a possibility when I tune ), i'll sell you the S/C. You got dibs.
