That's what I figured. I would like to build up a block anyways before going to a 20G size turbo. Modding isn't in the near future, more of a summer time thing. I will be staying in Eau Claire, so dragging would be a weekly or bi-weekly thing for me, as long as the car is up to it (knock on wood). What type of pistons would you guys use for a build up? I'm not planning on breaking the 500 whp mark, but want to make sure that the engine would last. I have heard bad things about JE pistons, and know that evo8 pistons have held up to 505 (or 550) WHP. I would also plan on auto-xing the car if that matters. I've been a domestic guy for the last eight months or so, but have always kept up with DSM's and other sport compacts. Thanks for all of the help. Noah
