how much power? well, your bridgeport will net you tons of power top end, and some loss down low.



How much boost? depends on your fuel system.

yes it is a n/a 6 port. so i will have alot of top end how much of a hp difference do you think there is?i am thinking of going with 550's & 1600 255 pump with a af meter and s-afc

as for low end you think it would be a good idea to run nitrous to pull of the line just before the turbo kicks in?

I think you need to build the motor and get it tuned with just the turbo before you even mention nitrous..

Why not save for a EMS? Be alot safer and not that much more than piggyback crap and other things you'll get. Find a used E6k or a Microtech lt8 or something.

yea i think that would be a better idea i just am not all that great with wiring and tuning who would i need to talk to if i get stuck? so while im waiting how much boost could the stock fuel system hold and when i get the ems how well would the internals hold up?

So you are gonna run 2 of those right? If you plan on running that HONDA turbo on a bridge port, all you are going to accomplish is making a little breep breep noise and a slow car. That turbo is way to small for a rotary much less a bridge.
