Well, I've never owned a forced induction car, so I don't know that from experience, but this isn't the first time I've heard that haha
Does anyone know what sort of numbers a bolt-on GT with a ported and pullied Eaton would put down? I'd love to be in the 5xx range, but I don't know if that's possible on a 2v without a ton of boost.
You aren't getting anywhere near 500whp with a stock 2V motor.
That being said, I was making 380/380 on my old GT with a Vortech and I had a blast with that car. It was plenty fast enough to have a ton of fun in, but not too fast to get me into trouble easily. I'd say save yourself some coin, buy the TT kit and have fun making 400whp. If you really want more, you can build the motor down the road and port/pulley the blower.
