Direct port NX Nitrous
.1mm over valves
Titanium valve retainers/springs
Port and polished head
Honed block
GM 3" MAF/Trans (done)
2g Ported exhaust manifold

Perhaps a new fuel rail? Not sure which kind or anything though..I was also thinking of asking Sheperd if he does, or knows of any places that do, reinforcement for rear differentials and transfer cases. Goal is 550+whp (w/o nitrous)

So wait, how many pounds of grass are you planning to sell now?

 

[Colossus]

I got some money saved......and then I got insurance money off the dude who smashed my tsi doing 40 while I was doing 2.

Some $? shit talk about ALOT of money, Plus I've heard knife edging your crank is not good for a daily driver, it takes weight off the crank, its only good for race cars.

Would look into some crower rods. Nothing better for dsm's. Also you're gonna need a professional to tune the ems. 550awhp is only standalone territory.

550whp is a car producing 687'ish total Hp. This is a very very big goal. Unless you have plans for a competition race car. Many times we have goal of unrealistic HP. But find that a car we can drive on pump gas that make 400whp is a lot faster and easier to achieve then we think. Just think for what you are going to spend, in order to 'try' to achieve 687hp. You could very easily have a very very nice street dsm. With all the amenities one would want in a devastating street car nice rims stereo..ect.

Yeah, I've also heard knife edging and lightening the crank along with haven a lightweight fllywheel is killer :\ so, I don't think I'll end up goin that route, b/c I already have a lightweight fidanza

What are your suggestions about the crank?Get a new one? Keep my current one? Etc?
