the 6A12 mivec is only 2.0L not 2.4L... From what i have heard, it would be wise to use the non-mivec 6A12 and boost the hell out of it.

Quite right, I was talking to James and Andrea yesterday, and they seem to agree that 2.25 is just right with a turbo up to about 7 or 8 psi, then maybe 2.5 above that.

Anyway, RRM turbo reflash and an intercooler will make a big difference. But don't forget things like the bov, boost regulator, and internals. It gets expensive, no wonder I'm staying with NA
