Default Power build

Well, I've dropped the Charger in favor of an engine swap. In about another week, I will be dropping off my Avenger to swap out the 6g73+slushbox with a 4g63t AWD. The goodies are pending though, but I'm looking for about 350 at the crank with room to grow. I'm going to take the upgrades "slow". I like the Venge enough to keep her, but not enough to settle for a turboed 3.0 swap auto and definitely not enough to keep what she has now. The swap is going to include a manual tranny and of course AWD. I figure 350 crank is enough for a ~3400lb car. The motor will have enough room to grow with add ons or upgrades, though upgrades will be minimal since the things that were picked out were upgraded already. I won't be the first with a turboed AWD Venge but I will be one of a very small handful . Wish me luck on this venture.
Some of you A/S folks might recognize this one...

Lol, Evo is acceptable not GTO man, lol. Here's a link to his (Jason's) cardomain site if you want to check it out... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/645767
He's got a 20G turbo too plus a lot more goodies than what I'm doing. It's basically an Eclipse GSX/Eagle TSi bottom with the Venge body, lol.

It's also still in the work phase I believe, he should be "done" with his by the summer.

That's what I'm doing to the 4g63t also, building it inside out, plus the tranny with short throw shifter/plates/lines...the list goes on (needs to stop soon too before I run out of money, lol)

Welp, she's gone in, but because they have another Venge in the shop, they won't get to start on mine until a bit later. Nonetheless, I'll have her back mid July if the build goes according to plan...and we all now how plans can be
