What is the stock HR block made of?

When Mclaren's F1 team asked me the same question about the block. I explained it like this.... It's not the block.. but the internals of the block that makes the engine strong. I had a turboed civic good for 25 lbs of boost.. 400hp at the wheels was the goal. To prepare my block for it.. I did not get it made out of carbotanium but got forged potatoes, rods, ductile sleeves. And got the whole block blueprinted. Oh I also bored it out to make it 1.8 versus the stock 1.6... I wanted to be a sleeper... As far as turboes go.. You can make your own.<< didnt no that) Tubing/piping will require custom work, but you can get that done at a relatively reasonable price!
like this guy:
vvv
so i can uses it like NOS? or like replacing the gas? maybe i will be able to say im going green if it replaces the gas? can you pls sends me some?

Either way, give James Cameron a ring if you would like some unobtainium. I hear he has the market cornered on that stuff.

Lmao my bad but I was being srs about obtaining a carbotanium block ftw
Rofl jk but I was being serious about I want to beat off supras off the line and also about how much boost my stock block can handle (obvi switching out various internals though) and also about if I would need new headers as well! I am srsly srs about turbohellacharging my vehicle! Right now I'm looking in to some $5000 turbos from gtm

my last post has given me a brilliance idea! With my extreme engineering background I am going to create the worlds first.....
HELLACHARGER!!
Basically it will be a combination of supercharger and turbocharger!
It will be twice as efficient and it will run off the drive belt to eliminate lag but it will also run off the exhaust to maximize the power!

Actually I just ran out of unobtanium, so I'm switching to Helium-3. Yes, I think that will work - much shorter distance to travel to get it. That way I'll just need a rocker and lunar lander, instead of a FTL spaceship. The stuff I did have came from a meteorite that fell to the earth.

Quoth Wikipedia:
"Helium-3 boils at 3.19 kelvin compared to unleaded 93's 4.23 K, and its critical point is also lower at 3.35 K, compared to unleaded 93's 5.19 K. It has less than half the density when liquid at its boiling point: 0.059 g/ml compared to unleaded 93's 0.12473 g/ml at one atmosphere. This lower density is ideal for high compression cylinders in carbotanium blocks of performance oriented vehicles. Its latent heat of vaporization is also considerably lower at 0.026 kJ/mol compared to unleaded 93's 0.0829 kJ/mol, and with a lesser level of latent heat of evaporation, it is most commonly used in order to maximize boost in performance oriented vehicles."
