What do I need for 680rwhp+

I know it is kind of a loaded question but I'm gonna start stock piling parts for a sc. I was originally thinking an ECS kit with meth injection but you can find some great deals on the tvs2300. I already have a good base built up and am going to be upgrading the axles and drive shaft this winter to help out. Never really gave a turbo set up any thought and I really like the whine of a roots style blower compared to the jet engine sound a centri makes. Although both are freakin awesome.

I also know the normal stuff like fuel injectors and hi flow fuel pump that normally come in a kit with a sc. I also have the stock pulley to replace my ud pulley on now and might even do an od pulley.

Pretty deep pockets. What's your budget? Start there and build backwards. That way you prioritize your needs because they need to fit into your monetary constraints.

More options than that out there. Some are a lot more efficient and easy on your engine Maybe a good Twin Turbo kit.

Send a message via AIM to epstein
The injectors that come with the kits are usually maxxed out .... A fuel pump is a must as well.... Id start by forging......

Easy. Our base turbo kit with integrated meth kit will do more power than you need for that.

Cam is fine. Would have to sell the headers but that is $1000 back in your pocket. Cam and turbo kit would do 700+ easy. You can sell the CAI too.

That's one reason I never really gave turbos a second thought. But I an intrigued
