1970 Charger

How much money would it take to mod a charger or chevelle SS to 1000 HP?

[2.2 Straight six]

lots. can't really give an estimate. could be between 15-30k. i dont know, haven't tried yet.

turbos aren't easy to tune with carburettors, you really need fuel injection.

not you again

stop following me!

wierdo french canadian..

i meant not big123 again, don't you remember him posting all of his "can you get this car to 1000hp" "can you get this other car to 1000hp" and the verdict was you can get any car to 1000hp so stop asking, you're never going to do it

search 1000hp and you'll find tonnes of threads started by him

[BigG123]

nah you can have a turbo at a carb. How do you think pro mod does it?

Beef Buredro why don't u go to toco bell

P.S. prob 10K to 15K

[beef_bourito]

cause i'm not mexican.

anyways you can have a turbocharger and a carburated engine but it's a big hassle and it's really tough to tune. you'll get way better results out of a fuel injected turbo setup. as for 1000 horsepower, turbocharger, 14lbs of boost, nitrous, rebuild engine to be stronger, fuel injection, you're there. or you can go supercharger and nitrous and you won't need the fuel injection.

So I can chose to get it fuel injected and change it from it's carb. Or I can go super charger and get there?

and in those cars the speedo only went up to like 140 do you need a navagation system to show you how fast ur goin past 140 mph?

[beef_bourito]

if you want to use a turbocharger you CAN do it carbed but it's difficult, i'd suggest fuel injection. it's much easier to tune a supercharger than a turbocharger on a carbed car. either way it doesn't matter, do whatever you want

you can get a new speedometer and get it to read higher and tune it for your gearing, wheel size, etc. or you can get a gps to read how fast you're going.

Yes so I should change the carbed to fuel injected and have 2 big turbo's and get there.

P.S. I lookin at 15K?

[beef_bourito]

you're looking at about 5-10k for fuel injection, i don't know because i've never seen anyone do it but you could probably found people who have, then 4-5k for the turbo system. then probably another 1-2k for nitrous. that's not including rebuilding. that will be expensive, people who know more about that stuff can comment but it'll run you a few thousand to get that engine build for a turbocharger with decreased compression, forged internals, etc.

[BigG123]

so about 15K

[beef_bourito]

at the very least.

any time you are talking about HP and money, its more a question of your skill, availible tools and ability.

If you farmed everything out and played it safe, you'd be looking at least 30K.

If you were frugal, dangerous and skilled....about 3K

and there is absolutely nothing wrong with carbs and turbo's. There's more 8 second 1/4 mile cars than you can shake a stick at with blown carb engines. If you don't want to do the research and trials, you can buy a ready-to-go carb for your application from CSU. What you can't do yourself, there is always someone out there that will happily do it for you if you pay them

damn.....i thought he got permanently banned, you don't need to mod every car you think of to 1000hp....you can tackle other problems to make the performace close or even better with lower horsepower
