my goal is about 400-500hp maybe 600hp on a turbo b18. are there any shops in the socal area or somewehre i can ship my engine to and get it built? how much do you guys think itll cost to build a engine to handle that much power? not including the turbo.

not including the turbo I would say 13-15k
maybe cheaper but I was just at a speed shop and he told me that hes getting a mr gasket g sport line B18C1 thats around 300HP and he remembers it is goimg top run about 11-12k, he didnt have the brochure or anything to look at so the price and or power ratigns could be +/- a bit. then for the turbo/fuel/tune i would add at least 4k more.
I live in WA os I know of know shops dow there htough, but if you just look and price parts that you think will get you close you could get an estimate in your mind, but remmebr machine work and cost of labor for assembly.
