Idk if i missed a key detail or not but wouldn't you want to break in or at least make sure your engine is in good running order before racing?

I'm assuming that since he said 'turbo it', we're talking about a 420A. So basically you'll spend all this money to, in the end, get a 420a to be as fast as a stock 4g63t. Sounds likebad planning IMHO. If you want to build a car to go fast, start off with something that's already got a little kick to it, something that has proven to be a solid paltform that will stand up to the abuse that you'll be giving it. You're 420a (a.k.a. Neon motor) will not hold up for very long under hard driving, especially if you're adding boost. And as far as the hypothetical race goes, my money is on the Vdub.
