Ok so i have been on here for about 3 weeks researching for my build, i want to make about 400whp, I have 4,500- 5,000 set aside for the build. What i figure i need is:

fuel:
walbro 255 pump
880cc injectors

Engine:
I have a short block being built by dsm grave yard, 7 bolt with 1g rods and evo 9 pistons

head:
re-built head, ss valve's upgraded springs and retainers
and a mild cam

Turbo setup:
20g turbo
better manifold
o2 housing
down pipe
cat delete
cat back
punishment racing fmic

Tuning:
ecmlink v3
GM maf
aem wide band
MBC

What else would be helpful for getting into the 400 range?
 
Alright added link, would the above mods put me in 400whp range? with my budget is 400whp attainable?
 
Did you mean te engine they are building you is a 6 bolt? To my knowledge you can't put the 1G big rods in a 7 bolt engine. Just a thought. While I'm not familiar with parts like the Evo 9 pistons and the specifics of a 20G I would say you are playing with a decent amount of cash. I dont know how much the engine is costing to build or if you are tune it yourself or figure tuning costs into it.
 
dsm grave yard uses a blanchard grinder machine to modify the rods to work in a 7 bolt, the engine is already paid for, the 4500 is what i have left
 
yes your definately going to need a new clutch/ lightweight flywheel.
stock clutch cant handle that much power.

also its not listed up there, but is a given.
your going to need to open up the intake side also.
a nice filter and hard pipe.
 
well we have e85 but i heard that it pits valves and pistons... i am looking at the devils own meth injection kit and i was planning on a intake... this is only my second turbo build ever and i payed a shop to do my first... i just want to do it right the first time
