Default Re: I want..

Block may survive for a little while if you make all the necessary modifications,lower the compression,etc.as well as added cooling.. Transmission will probally go first.

I have two small turbos on a 2110 VW Karmann Ghia street car ,homemade system air-water,intercooled with fuel injection using mostly Datsun parts -a little over 200 rear wheel hp in street trim..Engine life expectancy is directly related to turbo waste gate /boost settings....I use Porsche transmissions, can get 300 rw hp if I push it..lives pretty good @ 200 and makes a HEL**uva sleeper....Really a lot of trouble and not much fun after a month or so or until some new ricers show up around town...
