    For the price of a 'Busa motor, plus turboing it...not that impressive. Cool project though!! Sounds wicked too! I thought a 'Busa was close to 200hp stock? I have a '95 CBR1000F motor in the garage and it was rated 135hp way back then with carbs.......

    1995 F-150 Extra Cab and it was free!
    1991 Festiva L, Surf Blue with A/C
    1995 Jeep Cherokee 2wd 5 speed 4.0 and it was free!
    1993 Aqua Festiva and it was cheap!
    1994 Brake Swap and it was cheap!
    1969 Ford F100 Big Block Ranger and it was free! (coming 2/12)

      If I had the money mine would be invested in a snowmobile engine swap. My brother in law showed me a book that has built motors in it.....I saw one with like 350hp and over 300 torque. I think given the Harley swap it would be really easy to set a snowmobile motor in our cars.

          ..... yeah, the bussa is rated at 186hp, so why is it so down on power with 4psi boost?

              crank hp is very different than whp, especially when you are using two transmissions.

                I'm wandering when my friend Gary will show up again and post a response, this thread just isn't any fun without him :evil4:

                1988 323 GT - B6T Powered

                1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

                If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                      Using two trans would suck so much power.
