I'm thinking about putting 200HP on the street,nothing to crazy since i'm not trying to gun down a vette or viper "cough, cough" rolleyes.gif
But now seriously how your turbo doing, did you get any numbers from the dyno yet? That should make you 0-60 in Blurrr....

for 200 HP to the wheels, you do not need to alter anything internally (Rods, pistions). Do you want to go NA, Supercharger or Turbo?

Chueck in Korea stated that the highest NA tiburons are around 170 at the wheels or around 200 at the engine.

There are several links on the pros/cons
I will dig them up and throw them up here.
The biggest cons to Massive N/A HP is usually a lumpy idle
The biggest cons to Turbo are Massive heat in the engine compartment, and Turbo Lag
The biggest cons to Supercharging are Limited/impossible to intercool a manifold mount supercharger, and parasitic drag saps HP potentional.
Biggest PRO to N/A is usually bulletproof reliablilty
Biggest PRO to Turbo is MASSIVE HP potential.
Biggest PRo to Supercharging is Near N/A Reliability with Decent HP potential.
You should factor in Nitrous into your pros/cons list as well... Hell...this smells like an FAQ opportunity!

So how would the combination of Supercharger and Nitrous work in respect to total gains in HP???
Also what are the guess- stimate HP number I could expect with this tandem...
The heat issue sux on the supercharger but I guess I can deal with it, glad the bay area is no hot box...
Monday or Tuesday i'm going to my speed shop check out a supercharger install...
My mechanic is real cool he is a factory mechanic(GM,Nissan,Toyota)
