Yes your right the roots style charger gets into the way of the meth injection unless a custom made spacer plate between the charger is made but that's way to much fab work but I agree wit the ppl who have said go turbo if you want the power do it right the 1st time

If I could sell off enough crap to go turbo, I would... with a lower compression block. I just feel a little weary about going turbo with an l26.
I want to make the car fast as hell (for an M90 build). However, I do not plan on racing it much at all, or even driving it that often. Maybe 2-3 track days to see what type of PB's I can pull. Would upgrading the pistons still be necessary?

Screw the big extravagant build. Stuff has popped up that will change my plans.
I'm going XP or S1x/ Leaning toward XP. I've got a 2500 Mile L26, I'm reconditioning the heads, no milling "maybe slightly" to resurface them. And I'm gonna dial the E85 tune in and be done. (Shouldn't need an intercooler with a good tune) The VS cam and the intercooler are sold and are helping fund the rebuild.
I figure the XP fights KR better than the VS, so without an intercooler...Yeah. Plus I will get a little more top end out of it than the VS.
Anyhow, Everyone love carnage SO HERE'S THE BIG BOOM!!!.
My Engine died. I was sad
New block looking all purrty
No pictures of the chunky piston soup in the oil pan, but I'm sure you guys get the picture. I should be able to make a little more horsepower with the new plan. It will have to do for now. If everything goes smooth, I should be done by the end of this week. Just need to try to find a used cam, or suck it up and buy a new one. Also need one cylinder head because I found out that The big boom cracked my other head
I will update as this unfolds.
