You're going to be pushing the limits of the stock block on that much power daily. You'll need a T67 turbo to do it, too, depending on what kind of dyno you're looking for that much power out of.

What are your other mods? More realistically I'd just get a *Buschur* Cast manifold turbo kit w/ GT35R, AEM, some big injectors, and alky and call it a day. Nice reliable setup, then save to get your motor built.

well i don't think you'll be able to get a built motor and GT35R setup for $7k (unless you're doing the work yourself). so think about what is important. if you want to keep the stock bottom end i would say do a 50-trim + cams, and meth. that will give you some pretty good numbers. If you def. want to build the motor, then do that and save a little more for a 35R/built motor/head setup. - the real question is; if you build the motor and 35R it and whatnot, do you have the money to replace the motor if it pops?

Since you live in California, don't you at least have to try to keep your car legal looking under the hood? It's kind of a challenge to keep it stock appearing and capable of putting down 500 WHP.
