To many story like this will make some decent people chase the wrong path to HP down


The engine is $250 from the junkyard, stock bottom end, ARP head studs, gapped rings for boost (same the LS guys have been doing for years), $75 transmission, $100 rear diff. Turbos are chinese knock-off cheapies from eBay, I'd be mad too if I had tens of thousands tied up in some car (that still breaks) and that dakota whooped me.


BTW just checked, the turbos are $319 each.

9.60 @ 143 first time to the track, quicker every pass, kicked out for no cage or license
