So, I've been bouncing around ideas for boosting my BK. My friend suggested building a motor, and instead of an intake manifold, just putting a pair of blowers right onto the head, so the blower would bolt directly onto the intake on the head. After LOLing at that for a while, I started to seriously think about blocks, boost, and uses for a daily driver.
I've got a 2.2 NA block that will be coming in sooner or later, whenever I can get some money together to get the ****ing starter in the GL fixed so I can drive it up to hell and exchange it for the block and wheels.
Would it be more beneficial to just build a 2.0 liter JDM STi motor? I'm leaning more and more towards doing a high-revving, high power, high boost motor, and something about using a 2.2 NA block and 2.5 DOHC NA heads just screams "GLASS!!!!"
What I'm currently thinking... I'm gonna send my 2.5 DOHC heads in to get cams, valvetrain work, and some porting. Then, find a block to put the heads on that will allow me to run many revs, like 9,000, stick a large turbo on it for top end flow, and going from there.
So, to start out, which motor would be best suited for this? I have been thinking about some of the 2.0 TT motors, some of them have a higher CR than others, and sticking 2.5 DOHC heads on a 2 liter motor will give me a CR down in the high 6's, low 7's, which IMO, is too low (Aiming for around 8:1).
Should I start planning on doing a 2.0 T build, or should I just stick with putting the M62 on the 2.2 NA block W/ 2.5 DOHC heads on it like I was originally planning?
