Mr. Luos · 01-09-2007, 07:18 PM

You probably don't want to know.

Hell...I don't even like thinking about it.

haha. i guess so. well i like the engine cuz its done right. i hate how people toss on a giant turbo and expect their 4banger to last 100K miles... or when (some of my friends) think they can boost their (stock internal 2.4L with 80K miles) 13+ lbs with no intercooler..stock injectors.pump.etc with no problem...

your motors deff. built to perform..but it seems like its built to last too. no crazy boosting...not crazily high revving..etc.

No boost.
No bottle.
Revs to 6700.
Hell...compression is only 11:1.

Want to know how much?? Take that mod list and have at it.

I know total (wheels, motor, tires, rearend, etc) there is over $17K into it.

Its kinda hard to believe that you built that thing in a 1 car garage too. Doesn't seem like a lot of work space. You even had lifters on the stove. I still love that one.
