Good engine builder in PacNW?

Thanks for the info, Nate. It has quieted down considerably recently, and the slap from the forged JE's at cold startup seems to be getting better. So what mods have you done to push 700+hp from the 7M. I haven't switched turbos yet, still working through break-in on this rebuild. But a new turbo is on the list, just haven't picked one out yet.

Anyone have any recommendations? What are you running? Stock EM, or T4 headers?

I'm just lookin to clear 400whp and keep it as a grand touring car, not a dragster, more for autocross and long haul mile gobbler.
