A hefty checkbook, Just the intake and exhaust components will set you back ~ 3 Grand. Thats not counting the engine and does not include tuning.
Then you have that huge *** turbo youll need, and corresponding IC and pipes. And then all the little things that will add up REAL fast.

Yep, the price I quoted was for a NA PP. Hmm wonder why I know that?

hehe......I was so very close, but a last minute change of plans ended up with me scrapping that idea.

what about the eshaft is it the same?
Everything else is same, same. The factory PP could put out about 300 HP if you don't mind getting close to 10,000 RPM.



For that the rotors should be lightened, the bearings should be racing bearings, (more clearance) and the stationary gears should be hardened. Carbon or ceramic apex seals. Use 100 PSI for oil pressure.



In sprint racing they would turn these things 10,700 and for long distance, maybe 10,000 RPM. Good reliability.



Best power above 8,000 RPM.



Two pieces of 90 degree tubing bends and a store bought carb flange for a carb (48 IDA) or a bolt on throttle body.



Piece of cake. When do we start?



I have a factory Pport in my first gen race car if you need a photo.



Factory Pport rotor housings are over a grand each by now.
