yes, I have read those two threads.
I would be doing the labor myself, so that it not a problem, the tuning I would still need to pay for, however. I may just go BPU++++ this year, and then next year beef it up to 650, and resell the parts that I would need to change. Would this be a major inconveniece? Like what parts would I have to sell, I mean.. I could get the intercooler/cams etc right now and prepare for next year with just the stock twins still, then next year just get the turbo kit? No I don't care how it looks, If I did I could polish it etc myself, I have the equipment available for chroming as well. |

 Be sure to get an intercooler and BOV big enough to handle 650rwhp so you don't have to change these out too.

So basically I can go bpu++++ to 650whp eithout changing all that much as long as I buy the parts to handle the power? So what would you suggest I get this year (I want everything except the turbo kit) so what would I need so that next year I can just buy a turbo kit and install? Besides the clutch cause I'll do that next year too.

At the BPU++++ level, you'll very likely burn out your oem clutch before you put the single turbo kit on. It starts slipping in 6th gear under boost on the highway first...then 5th, then 4th, etc.

I'll replace the clutch when needed so it should be about 4k for parts? (excluding clutch). Thanks for the help man.

Oem-width rims & rubber won't even hold 425rwhp (and definitely not 650rwhp!). Your rear rims need to be at least 11.5" in width (315 or 305 width z, y, or r rated rubber, and not low-profile). 11.5" is 2" wider than oem rims. It's easy to spend over $2K on just the rims, and some folks spend $6K or more if you also go for a large diameter rim too. Don't forget to budget for the race fuel (unless you go for the alchohol injection kit). More than about 16psi on 93 octane {(r+m)/2} will gradually damage your engine (it won't grenade instantly, it'll just degrade the compression/leakdown numbers over time). To make 425rwhp, you'll need to hit about 20psi of boost...and to hit that safely, your gas tank should contain about 25% of 100 motor octane (or better) race fuel. Oh, I forgot to mention the GReddy 3-row intercooler is available with both "oem twins" piping and "single turbo" piping. Ideally, you should buy it with both sets of piping so you don't have to worry about that when you get your single turbo kit.
