That Ecotec is the same engine you'll find in Aleros, Cavaliers, Cobalts and many other small GM cars. Obviously this one's just realy extensively modified and probaby makes 10x the power

An all motor K20/K24 is better. When boost comes into play is when the Eco dominates.

lately, i've decided that if my alero ever got hit so hard, it didn't get back up again... i'd get a eco alero/grandam... something like that.
maybe use the rest of it for a quick'n'dirty turbo upgrade (to get back to the V6 power, and better sound) then tweak/upgrade in the future...
...but thats just all IF my car gets wrecked. WHICH i hope doesn't happen..

thats some sick power coming from a 4 cyl!

so....twincharged eh?
I'm not excited about the build or the accomplishment, because as we all know, it's not a big deal on power vs. expense vs. effort.
However, I'm really excited to see you spend all that money!
Good luck!

lol thanks guys...
I'm just trying to start something new here...i know i could find reliable HP in a well sized turbo but this seems so much more fun, an oversized turbo and a supercharger....should be fun!
