Hey, I fixin to buy a 5-speed rs with about 100,000 miles on it. I was just wondering what kind of things I could do to restore. I know its an rs but any gs-t/gsx is extremely rare to come by. And when I mean rare, I mean about one every 5-6 months. So I am going to just get that one and be satisfied. But on otherhand the what is max hp I can put on my stock engine without overheating it? Any help would be nice. :screwy:

You really won't be able to produce much more power than stock on an N/T. I'd say that 160whp is hard to attain.

You don't have anything to cool with an intercooler unless you buy a turbo kit. Then, yes, you will want one.

Yes i am willing to torbo charge it, and by looking at the rst..it seems worth the while. I am not trying to break records, but I am wanting to be a little different.

yup especially if you want the engine to last any amount of time. talk to jake about it. i'm in the process of building a turbo 420a motor right now and it isn't cheap...i even got half of the parts needed for free and its still pretty damned expensive.
