Before I answer this question let me ask you some things...
1. how much money do you have to spend? 2. How long can this vehicle be down? 3. How mechanically inclined are you? |
I was looking at doing a s4 turbo II swap, but i have changed my mind and i'm building a full bridgeport 13b-rew turbo engine with a t88. I'm looking for 500 pump gas and 700 c16 at the wheels. this i know is possible as for the reason i've seen quite a few first gens with 500 rwhp up here in the lower mainland of British Columbia. the chassis can handle the power its the rear end that we are having problems with. but if its a drag car than a ford 8.8 narrowed can be modded and installed into the factory hangers. For me down time isn't a question and money isn't either. And i'll be building the engine myself exept for the 5 extra dowels that need to be installed. the tuning i'll be having done at forcefed performance. Marko is a friend of mine. Go get yourselfs the new HCI mag it has a build up of a 700 13b-rew
