yeh but v8's are heavy and to get any good power to match wat the turbo 6 would be you would need to spend another couple grand to get it up to scratch....

just go turbo setup, be the same if not cheaper than getting ur N/A setup over 200rwkw

check these guys out u get a basic system for about 3 gs and if u do this your self you could save heaps
then after that get bigger injectors and re maped ecu (chiped) for about $1500
so its not overly expensive tones of ford fans have done it

Err no.
Wet shot thats not too crazy is completely safe if you pull a bit of timing out.

Next you'll be telling him to be careful of the welds on his intake manifold :lol:

what drugs are you on?

every engine i've ever put nitrous on (NOS is a brand name) have had stock cranks in them.

the XD in that thread has stock crank stock rods and cast pistons. it gets a 150hp shot of gas.

http://www.fordmods.com/forums/viewtopi ... 5&start=20

i've done stock LS1s, stock holden 5L, stock holden pre ecotec V6s,
a few ford 4L engines, and escort 2L with stock crank and rods.

so is driving around with a turbo on an E serries falcon, and so is driving a highly modded N/A engine.

at least with nitrous you can take the bottle out and cap the lines off.

dont go turbo man, save for a super charger, youll pick up a decent one cheap, youll make your 250kw, and the power will be there consestently, not like a turbo


but if your chasing high numbers you may aswell get the turbo, if your only looking for 250kw super charge it

if your only chasing 250kw. a turbo is by far the better option.

a smallish turbo running low boost combined with reasonably high compression (9:1 - 9.5:1) will easily get 250kw and will be on full boost way befor any centrifugal supercharger will.
