More specifically Terry means to build the motor in such a way that it would be 'meant' for Turbocharging...i.e.lower compression, stronger rods etc... laugh

Damn, if I'd known I could have a new one for $1600, I wouldn't have bothered tearing apart my old one, because it cost about that much.

The prices I was quoted locally were in the range of $2500 to $2900.


96 GL Zetec ATX, white with pinstripe, nickname " Sam Smooth "
mods so far: CTA intake with homemade heat shield, KVR drilled front rotors & carbon pads w/ 500° fluid
planned mods: exhaust (want to keep it quiet), e-ram (awaiting installation), diablo chip
involuntary mods: compression increased after head gasket failure

WOW, thats not bad. I was thinking of spending $1500 just on the head. $2k for a whole re-build engine isn't bad. How much for a turbo ready engine?

Hell, how much for a 300hp drop-in with the turbo already on it? That would be the ultimate.
