I wouldn't know the best way to to reach 500+hp because I'm still around 200hp

But I know me and a friend plan on building up my bottom end first. While allowing me to still rebuild the head.

But then you have to think about the details.
Like will the clutch/flywheel/pressure plate hold up.
Drive shaft being 18+years old
etc etc

Try upgraded CT26-550cc injectors-walbro 255 fuel pump-exhaust-BIC DDP-Filter-

that right there sounds like it would please the power need for a little time

From bone stock?

Do a MHG, get some new 550cc injectors, a MAFT-Pro, a Wideband O2, new fuel pump, replacing anything rubber in the engine bay, and a CT26.

That'll run you close to $3000, and you should be able to get 350-400rwhp, reliably.

$$$ then add some more $$$ and when it's just about right a few more $$$ can't hurt ;)


Bingo. The past year I've been coming home and losing 80% of every paycheck on my way through the garage into my house. I'm planning on 500hp on a budget build and I'm already past 5k at least, I still have at least another 1,500-2k to spend.

7m = reliably

best thing would get a front clip of a 1jz supra and do the swap
I did not put this young man up to this IJ, I swear..........and for the record, he can't do the 1jz swap for $3000.00 either. He'd be better off building his 7m with some really good internals and replacing the stock oil pump with whatever it is you guys replace the stock oilpumps with............and then do lots and lots of praying and maybe sacrifice a virgin or two............:biglaugh:

you can only pick 2 of these and you loose the 3rd one

reliability
performance
cheap
