lol yup, thats about it, the thing is that a bore over dosent give you hp. Thats pretty much a waste of money if you dont build the motor high compression (turbo or n/a). With 2.5 inches in and out and the wires you may be able to see 16.5 if you can launch and drive correctly.

Reasearch dude. Find out what things work well and compliment each other to give the higher gains. Bore out the TB and do a port and polish on the intake, head, and exhaust. Get exhaust headers and then a bigger exhaust system. Look into an intake system get the supporting mods first THEN look into the boring out and all the more detailed mods. You wanna run faster find the stuff that has proven HP gains on a stock engine unless you're going to build the engine at the same time.

best bet would be to turbo charge it. I've been looking for the same answer and i've found it through research. 420a are slow, unless you build the motor up ALOT!, or Turbo charge it...

well it can take boost on the stock motor im sure around 10 PSI I think a little more actually and it will be fairley quick at that point but if you want no worries a motor rebuild is a good idea

Right on the head, 12 psi is officially when the ring land blows. Hahn keeps the actuator spring set for 8 because boost always finds a way to creep a bit, expecially in an internally gated turbo.
