Do I sense sarcasm? Don't even go there with me tonight.

All I am saying is this. You can dump a ton of money into a 420a and build all the internals and turbocharge it and crap and it'll have like 250hp. Or, you could spend the same amount of money, or less and buy a stock 4g63t motor and tranny and bolt it in and you'll have 210hp stock on it. Now, the stock internals to that stuff is good for 450ish hp without changing anything inside. You can throw a different turbo on it and a few supporting bolt on mods for cheap and you will easily have 300+hp easily. I'm not saying it in a '420a is shit sense'. I'm saying it in a money to power sense.

I don't have a magic link to some site that will tell you how to do all this. Because such a site doesn't exist. If you do a little research between the two motors you will see how much easier a higher hp is achieved with the 4g63t. That is all I'm trying to point out to you. Take it or leave it. Its just advice. Nobody has a gun to your head about it.
