Is 500 whp realistic for a non built m20 with just a new head gasket, welded water jackets, and head studs? I'm only looking for 450-500 whp out of my car and would be happy if I could run 11's and trap in the 120's in the 1/4.
would I be better off picking up a cheap junkyard m50 and boosting it or would there be even more associated costs like building the motor to make that power on 91+ meth?
My current m20 is already boosted with a rear mount sts kit tuned on a TCD chip but if my goals are realistic I would redo the whole setup using what I can and go mega squirt.
I figure at least another 1000-2000 to redo my current m20 while reusing what I can. So probably head gasket+studs, new manifold, better turbo (depending) megasquirt, and random odds and ends.
Or 24v turbo swap for 2000-4000?
What do you guys think?
