The SRT-4makes 215hpand your SOHC with a turbo and intercooler could make somewhere around 250-275hp says Hahn Racecraft, All on 7-9 psi of boost and without upgrading parts on your Engine, SRT-4 What?
You put a Hahn turbo on an old engine with worn parts and see what happens.

or any turbo kit for that matter.....
my stock motor lasted almost exactly 10,000 miles until i spun a rod bearing......and that was only at 7psi....just make sure to watch your oil and you shouldnt have too many problems as long as you dont drive like me

The srt4 swap is the way to go the internals will handle 450 - 500 hp with out any mods and for build for build the srt 4 2.4L will out power out torque either 2.0L
SRT-4 Engine = Blah

Hahn RaceCraft website says 7psi of boost will put the DOHC and SOHC Engine at 200-225hp WITHOUT an intercooler and it will be safe for the stock internals. You could find any turbo and use 7psi to get the 200+Hp 7psi is the same from any turbo company.

The SRT-4 Swap is good if you allready have the engine but is way over pricedif you just want the power of one.

I'm putting my Garrett on soonwith 7psi and I'm going to have some fun racing Ricers for pinks (Joking!).

Speaking of... I just took the Turbo apart today and got it all lubed up and allI need to do is mod my manifold for turbo useand buy some fittings and I'll be ready to throw it together within the next week (hopefully!). I usually check my oil every 2 days and with the turbo I'll check it more often just to make sure I'm not going to screw anything up!.

I'm going to fix my leaky cam position sensor and hopefully I wont have any more oil loss when it comes time for the Turbo to go on. I have a back up 95 SOHC enginethat can be converted to work within the day for use as my bitch incase I need it if my current engine would blow. I don't plan on taking it over 115mph just because thats too damn scarey so at least there will be no blow outs at over 100mph+. I'm more interested in 0-80mph performance than top end right now because I'd love to hand cars their *** without trying so hard on the street.

There was no 94, it's a 95. And it will bolt up fine!

Build date may be 94, but it's a 95! Just like there are 2008 vehicles out now, but obviously we are not there yet!
