    If you're going to supercharge it, copy my engine and go with m54 internals. Stock bore, 9.4:1 CR with stock headgasket. Sleeves won't be needed. You'll still have 3.0L

    $.02
    Sounds like a plan!

    Yes it is. The smurf valve cover and plenum will be refinished before I sell the s14.

    If a blower goes on the car, then it will be on the s50. ;)

    If I kept the s14, then I'd definitely get the new version of RMS' centrifical blower. I've decided after driving numerous turbo cars over the past few months, that it's either NA or SC for me. :p

    and you'll even get better handling than with the s14.
