N/A 20B FC performance, power and cost

at this point it's an upcoming project, but I figured it would be cheaper than a turbo 20B by a good margin. Also I'm fairly sure there are more than a few of you guys that have them. And finally engine mounts; Anyone know where to get them from?
So, what kind of power can I start considering using various ports. and any other suggestions you all have for me.

There are some good posts if you search about N/A setups. In actuality, a healthy N/A setup isnt going to cost you much less at all than a turbo setup, when you start talking custom intakes, headers, ITBs, etc.. For just a generalization, ~320WHP with large streetport, custom header, stock intake. For much more than that you will need a specialized N/A intake, ITBs, etc. From there you can start looking toward ~375ish WHP, and for much more than that bridges and P-ports.

yea I was running the numbers and it looks like I could maybe get the swap down to around 8-10 K doing all my own work alot of cash but a lot less than 20K. Besides I only want 350 ish. street car mostly for around town and weekend cruising. oh and furthering the cause and supporting 20B swaps.

We were already talking, so you know what i think you should do.. (pp!!!!) but i think that if you just wanted to keep it cost effective, mabey a bridge with a stock intake mani. That should be around the realm your looking for. Later down the lines mabey we can start talking about ITBs, and custom intakes.

also, something that i think needs a lot more experimentation, or at least open conversation, is a expansion chamber on the exhaust.
should be good for some mega ponies, and is probably what all those NA dragsters are doing that are making 9s on a 2 rotor with 420rwhp..
