what did you have done to the bottom end and what are you hoping to run for boost when it is all said and done, i have a turbo set up on my 02 but it is a stock block, just wondered what you had done to it and what you paid for it and where you got the parts from??

where did you get the work done and where did you get the rods, pistons, ect, did you have it bored over, or is it the stock piston size?

the motor ran me a little over 2grand with a new seal set becouse i was running low on alot of stuff. i wanted this motor not to be a daily but at least survive 2 or 3 days of the week.

Congrats man, cant wait for the day you get that motor fully broken in and turn up the boost!

Oh and out of curiosity, how long did it take for you to get the motor from Howell?
