So you got second hand information and fully intended to take that @ face value on a $10k decision? Glad you're ballin out like that.

George, as in George Sohoritis told me the stage 2 kit will make over 700whp on E85. Maybe you should actually call them and get details directly from the manufacturer.

What's the rest of that list look like?

Yea I am going to get the motor fully built. What are some precautions that you think are important to make it hold together?

You are probably right I should do more research on the SOHO kit. I have been looking into the BP kit alot lately sorry!.

I will be getting a stage 4 clutch + flywheel from zspeed
CJM s1.se fuel return +their relay
AEM gauges
OS giken 1.5way LSD
id 1300cc injectors
still debating on 1 walbro 450 or 2 of them
and still deciding on flex fuel.
305/45/17 tire and 325/30/19 for street tires
BC coilovers
motordyne exhaust with art pipes
z1 oil cooler unless the bp kit comes with one.
still debating on engine and trans mounts.

Remember that if you go with some of the kits, the ART pipes won't be an option (BP for example). BP Turn Key kit does have an oil cooler, but I'd say go with Fast Intentions Oil Cooler. Good price, great quality components. I've had multiple small issues with the oil cooler from the turnkey kit leaking, and the fittings are not great quality.

I can't think of any of the turbo kits that would allow the use of ART pipes other than a rear mounted one.

Thanks for the info about oil coolers.

With that you will eventually join the blown motor club at the power levels you want.
