You have the F1A option here along with our front mount intercooler kit. You are going to need a much better fuel system and all the other supporting mods to go along with it. Bob

DD and high horsepower do not mix well. High horsepower cars do need a lot moer upkeep and maintenance. You could hit the 850ish range with a 40X and F1-A or F1-R blower or a 88mm turbo. A larger cube motor will create more power with less stress and strain on it.
The motor and FI component are not the only things that will need to change. Just about everything else will have to be upgrade to handle the power: transmission, suspension, driveshaft, rear axle or differntial, and on and on. IMO you could easily put a $100K into a car to make it a streetable DD with 900+ rwhp.

large cube with turbo, if it's mainly street driven, don't oversize the turbo because of lag..I have a 418 with a garrett 81mm ball bearing turbo and has no lag, everything is upgraded on the car and I drive it almost daily, still gets pretty good gas mileage..I haven't got to the track yet because I don't have a cage yet, I'm going to install a cage this winter and full suspension so maybe next year we can get some numbers...good luck with your build...

I would think you would need to use the lsx block to get as many cubes as possible, a F1A, and then to get you in the nines or low nines I would hit it with a 200 progressive shot.

I can offer you a turbo kit that will support that. A nice T6 setup with a 88mm or a 85mm with a 4"downpipe. Plus ofcousre you will have to add the engine that will be able to handle it. Pm me for any questions...
Thanks Joel

What experience do you have first off with any high horse power cars? Not trying to sound like a *** but that's a lot of power for the street.
Give us a little history so we can better help you. Good luck and hope we can give you the guidence for your build.
