more power
've been a 1st gen 12a owner but just picked up an 88 n/a and the motor is in peices and figure it's the best time to make more power but need to know what the best thing i should do. I know i'll be turboing it but not sure of all what i should do. I'm looking to get 400+ maybe 500 hp

400rwhp to 500rwhp arnt easily attainable when starting out n/a. You will need porting, reinforcement, turbo drivetrain, a large turbo, modified turbo intake manifolds, most likely turbo rotors, turbo exhaust sleeves, new exhaust, a standalone ecu, intercooler and piping, extra fuel supply(ie injectors and fuel pump), along with some other custom work. Look to spend a minimum of 4-5k if you do all the work. probably 7k+ if someone does it for you.
