Turco, clearly the order of operations is buy a turbo too big for your setup, blow your motor and tranny, THEN buy upgraded internals. WTF dude

Wouldn't it just be easier and more fun to blow it up first though? Don't you want to go stroker anyways? Why do it twice? I'm Ron Burgandy?

Blowing up my motor more fun, no. I dont want to break it especially bottom end stuff. Blowing up bottom end stuff would require me to replace things like the block and/or crank, things my wallet would not enjoy.

I dont really think i want to do stroker, id rather do 2.0 and rev to 10k.

Just giving you a hard time Turco. I wouldn't want you to blow up your motor either. Why not a de-stroker? Best of both words

even more money then built 2.0 or 2.3
then on top of that, parts are crazy expensive to redo if you break it


best thing is built 2.0L
