    **** i would run it on a 2.5L or any V6! if its got a cast block, its on like donkey kong.

    Who would twincharge a motor with no mods? Get a chip, CAI, upgrade your exaust 1/2", get a header with the turbo manifold, upgraded fuel delivery, MSD ignition and then talk forced induction. Then possibly some racing heads, and maybe some new cams and you will be rolling fat.

    You obviously have no idea what in the hell your talking about. So, I'll tell you.

    1) There is no such thing as a chip for these cars. We have PCM's and you have to tune them.
    2) Just because the block is cast iron doesn't mean sh*t...I've toasted more than one.
    3) So increase your exhaust ONLY a 1/2"? Maybe it worked on your Honda but not these cars.
    4) The turbo runs off the crossover...not a turbo manifold like a B-Series, or 4G63. Jesus
    5) Just because you have MSD Ignition doesn't mean it is better...the stock ignition in these cars is awesome.
    6) Racing Heads? For a 3.1 or 3.4? So like maybe 10 more horsepower? Right. Those motors, or your Cast Iron 2.5 liter V6 won't make **** for power even with a lot of mods.
    7) CAM...not cams...these are Overhead Valve Motors, not Dual Overhead Cam motors.

    Work for you?
