Default DECISION TIME

ok so since my legal troubles have put a halt on my pc-16 plans i have to make a decision. regardless of which decision i make i have to get a job soon (like this week). the decision i gota make is do i go pc-16 as soon as i can get enough money together (wouldn't take more than 3 months) or do i save up a lot of money and go BT. I would have to make some sacifices togo BT tho. iwould have to really limit my weed smoking and drinking to save money. I was alsothinkin to help save money that i would stop driving my car so i dont have to pay gas and insurance. i live in a college town and rarely use my car as is. no reason to be paying 2600 a year. i would have to work all summer too. but i think it might be worth it. my k04 has 99830 miles on it and i dunno how long it would last running 25-28psi. and if im gona have to replace the turbo, i wana go with a bigger one.

so what do you guys think? go for decent power at a much cheaper price and sooner, or sideline the car, save up a bunch, and make it a beast.

I'm not a user myself, but I still think it's ridiculous that your government spends so much money cracking down on a drug that is widely accepted in most of the rest of the world. I feel for you man, that sucks.

as for your question, if it was me I'd save up the cash for the BT. how big are you thinking of going? 2871rs? or bigger maybe? are you wanting to build the motor for a 30 or even 35 series turbo?

yup, its really gay. and i dunno bout the turbo yet. initially i was thinkin t3/t4 but i gota think bout the other options. i would just have to strengthen the rods if i were to slap on a 3071r or somethin simlar, right? im trying to figure out my goals and im thinkin 350 AWHP would be siiiiick. wut would that take?
