Turbo build, need some advice

[Erick]

Are you implying that an M20 can't take boost and be reliable on a completely stock motor? Because if so, you have NO idea what you are talking about.

Isaac had a beat down m20 that kept pushing and pushing even on it's last legs. Never took the plunge. My M20 went through what..... 30-40 track days before I let the timing belt snap.... f*cking it all up.

M20s are GREAT motors and can hold plenty of power stock. With a better headgasket and some head studs I'm sure it'll do 350whp with no problem. On a 2500lb car, that's quite a lot.

whatever it came with stock is too much for consistency and reliability

EXACTLY. Take that and turbo it at 200K on the factory ECU, and now you're a mainstream E30 guy.

[SpecM]

Who said anything about consistency or reliability? I could do it ONCE with a stock motor.

Oh I see waht you mean

What do you thing the upper limit of power is, consistanly and reliably?

You've never heard about it because... well, who would want a 600hp e30?

[SpecM]

Huh? It's very possible.

really? I've never seen/heard of an m20 that can put down those kinds of numbers consistanly and reliably. But I guess it's possable. Still not something you see very often tho...

[matt]

and no m20 can make 600 hp. Sorry.

Huh? It's very possible.
