Since everyone and there mom goes F/I... wich im not knocking! ive decided to go the other direction! N/A my goal is to have the fastest N/A coupe... should be a little safer on the engine and not many people can say they went this route! ohh and im talking about building a block and everything! *evil grin*

wish me luck!

 

People generally don't do it because it costs a lot more money, its a lot more work, and drivability is worse than with a turbo or supercahrger.

 

yeah its gonna be a beast! hahaha im excited !!!!

 

and if im gonna spend the big bucks and do it i might as well do something that not everyone else is doing!

 

Sounds like a plan, but you'll have more down time that way.....

G/L and let us know how it goes.

yeah.. im in Iraq till may of next year.. ive got nothing but time! haha thanks for the support! i will def keep you guys posted every step of the way

 

nothing but time...and money

what happened to the APS you were talking about just last week?

If you're anything like me youre sitting over there scheming how to spend your money when you get home, and you will change your mind a dozen times anyway.

 

I am sure that however you finally decide to modify your ride, it will be a winner. In the meantime, be careful and safe.

 

And it won't be as fast as if you spent the same amount of $$ to go FI.

 

cmon jimmy.... why not do both? build it up and throw the aps on... haha

 

why spend thousands of dollars and only gain maybe a max of 30rwhp???

 

You might as well do an engine swap if that's even possible. Cause reality is, you'll be spending the same, if not more going your way. Engine swap is also unique...I don't know anyone who's done it....maybe the M45 Engine????? MUHAHAHAHAHA

 

Hey man drop a Vette engine in (flame away all ye Vette haters ).

Whatever you do, good luck on the engine build and be careful out there.

 

Paranormal, well first I want to give you a big thanks for doing what you have to do in Iraq. I like your Idea. I would be nice to get an extra engine and build it while still driving the car. Not sure where you plan to build it but those Hobby shops on base seem to work out really well. You should get a note book and start jotting Ideas down so yo don't forget anythign to the last detail. You do have a lot of time to do all this right now.

 

Yeah, yeah! Engine swap with M45 then twin-turbos! You know it's possible, all you need is money and time...hey what a co-inky-dink!
