Default Is it ture?

That a 346ci or 402ci engine (modified) with a turbo set up car run 1000rwhp on 93 and stay togather? I was really never intrested in Forced motors but it seems like its better, money wise than getting a 454ci N/A motor that only can have like 700rwhp. And i do not like nitrous because it costs alot where i live.
What would i be looking at to get like a 900rwhp set up? I would like to keep the car street friendly also...

In short Yes, I use to be a big N/A guy until I seen what Turbos and Prochargers were doing and driving them on the street

Thats crazy! I have seen twin turbo set ups, but under the hood things are missing like windshield cleaner tank ect. So how can these be streetable?

A lot of time, money, and engineering will keep it "streetable." And your definition of streetable is probably ALL accessories working and running on 93 pump gas....

The only shot you have at running 93 and not blowing up is big cubes, big turbos, running low boost.

That would be my definition of streetable, wouldnt running low boost me less power? Like what is some power i can get out of a turbo motor, and 402ci or less on 93?

A 402 with an S88 will make all the power you want on 93 octane.

that's basically what I'm doing, big displacement and big turbo equals large amounts of power...I have a 402 with nitrous now and it does great, but you can't play with it all the time and to make 1K hp on nitrous you would have to spray the hell out of it to reach that power level and wouldn't be very streetable..IMO....

Spend about a year on the board

Honestly.... , right now you're in way in over your head. Just got the car and you're 17.... The price tag for this stuff is notttt something that's cheap. You will learn a lot by reading here, because FI is actually something you need to know something about, even before you pay someone else to do it....

By the way, 1000rwhp is no joke. Lots will debate that 750rwhp is hard to keep street.

Well my orgional plan was to get a LSX 483ci n/a, but the head flow would be too restrictive, so i looked at a 454ci LSX n/a until i heard about FI and i can make a hole lot more power. i know that i am looking at a lot of money, new rear end, trans. etc. I like the idea of an old school motor, like N/A but i want more power, like a turbo motor, nothing like ricers thoe!

if you dont like to work on or mess with the car atleast once a week i'd suggest looking for other goals.... a big single or small twin project your looking at a baseline of 14k$ just for motor and turbo kit.... then be prepared to sink in another 15k$ for random **** that will break or that needs to be changed..

a 450-520rwhp car NA with a 125shot of spray would probably scare the Fu#$ outa you on the street.... you need to take it slow and find out how fast a 11sec ride is...

Dont get me wrong, i do know what a 10 second 1/4mi feels like, and also on the street.
So in FI motors stuff breaks more ofter than N/A motors?

There is more stuff to break and possiblility for you to break it. Who builds an FI motor and doesn't stick their foot in it?

It's a more complex system, requiring more fuel, making more power, ... of course.

I gotta call BS. You are acting like 1000hp and 10s is no big "thang".

man this thread is getting, no take that back dumb from the start.
you're 17 years old and you want a 1000rwhp car, and to run on pump?
first off you have no idea of the cost to build something like that weather NA, nitrous or boosted. next you have no idea of the maintenance required, its just not plug and play.
you have no idea of the power, you probably would be dead in a week or hopefully just in jail with a 600rwhp car.

i would suggest to start out with maybe just a heads and cam plus the needed suspension and drive train upgrades, get some experience with that, then work your way up. be careful out there.
