This is kinda a big step, you realize what you are taking on here?

The stock motor can take like 600awhp by the way, so if your goal is less than that, dont bother with the shortblock.

Also, you might want to consider a long block. Running all that power, your going to need a race head.

personally if you want a streetable daily driver your going to want to keep the engine you have and maybe rebuild it. i dont see how replacing the engine and swapping out for a single turbo could be that streetable especially if you have to worry about tuning it and all, which you probably will.

Dude, you wouldnt need to tune it. Dont give advice on something you know nothing about.

Im not getting a single turbo, i said i was just wondering about it.

Im lookin to get this engine http://www.ipsmotorsports.net/produc...oducts_id/1970

so i can beat the new 2009 corvette that weighs less than3,500 and has more than 620 hp.

im planning on getting some big fuel injectors and all the other modds, and turbos that will support up to 800-1000 awhp if possible. if its still a daily driver car like a corvette or viper.



Thanks alot

Well, you cant make that much power on a twin turbo setup. Do you realize how much this is going to cost you?

This will cost well over 15k

Take a look at www.dynamicracing.com They have a well written upgrade sequance. Although its missing a couple things.

thanx

dynamic racing and some other websights have big turbos for salethat claim they can go up to 1000awhp.

RE: Buy upgraded shortblock engine with forged pistons etc.
 

yea i read that sight tons of times for fun, i was looking at the dr 1000 turbos or the other ball bearing turbos that say they can go up to 1000 awhp or at least 800 awhp with other mods. apreciate it

(but i dont know if they can go up to 1000 awhp cus Matt monet hasnt done it yet, I think??) That dude nelson has a powerfull car but someone said its like 700-800 hp?

RE: Buy upgraded shortblock engine with forged pistons etc.
 

Im willing to bet that was a single turbo setup. The money it would cost to acomplish the fine tuning aspect of it will throw your build cost well over 50k.

The only possible way i can see anyone making that kind of power from a TT setup (and i have never seen that) would be an incredible tune. The tuning time will cost BIG. I would say 700+awhp on a TT setup just isnt going to happen. Your best bet is to go simple. Big single turbo and a strong setup. Still your looking at well over 15k.
