Kept the motor the stock displacement (3.0) honed polished and ported the factory intake and heads. Also put some high strength valve springs, and a mild cam in it (I forget the make). The bottom end was built to take 700+ hp, with some insane main bearings, con rods, and pistons.
I mentioned the big greddy turbos, but we may swap them out for the "fat potatoes" to get a little more midrange grunt, if you noticed the H.P. curve is a little flat till the big G's spool up then it is as steep as evrest!
We custom built a crazy intercooler that looks like it belongs in a big rig to keep all that boost (18-20psi) cool.
I forget most of the makes of the parts we put in, mainly because my cuz changed his mind over and over again! We must have had 3 sets of con rods sitting on the bench at one point in time!
It is a fun car, we are still working out A LOT of bugs, but that is the challage of a big powered forced induction engine!
