Man...just out of curiosity, how much power you think you'll be putting out when that thing is completed? Goodness, I'd love to trek over and help out if I didn't have work and finals...

It should make around 420WHP on 93 pump gas alone arond 22-24 PSI and on race gas it should make around 480WHP. And With any luck if I can drive it good should make about 11.6-11.7 drag times and trap aroun 119-122 ish

Nice, man...I'd love to see a dyno vid of that thing, lol. I think I should come over, live in your area for the summer and you teach me everything about cars. :-p

Lol.

You know you have to post some videos of that thing when it's completed. Pics, too, but videos of a good launch.

it may be very little BUT that was on stock turbo and maybe MAYBE 280WHP I am going to be running higher boost and making 420WHP or in the area if not more when I get alky. so if I got trouble now it will be worse with higher power and cyl pressures

If you got the cash, do it. If you are stretching it then wait. Not to mention you can sell your head and bottom end as it is so that will remove some of the cost.
