jd, im going to suggest reading/searching bro. hell, you could find gobs of info just by searching "zombie".

its going to take a good bit of work to do what you are wanting to do. is your car a stick car or auto?? auto would be a huge help if your wanting to pursue the rearmount way. take some time and read.

you will need at the very least a set of upgraded valve springs to come close to your goal. and as far as turbo size. hmmm. i would think the upgraded sts precision 67mm wouldve done 600whp. and it had a .81 or .82 hotside. i never had sts, just going off what ive read.

like i said, hell, just search zombies' name and start reading.
