    see the problem with both is your still shelling out a BUTLOAD of money for something that is still killing you.... for 2k you could cryo treat your crank and full balance... brand new H beam rods and brand new weisco pistons that would handle the power probably better than that kit... i wont slam the kit though i really dont know that information... but what i do know is those rods and good pistons are nearly indestructable and thats what you want right? for 4K you could put the rods and pistons in your ride, and get a HUGE turbo and injectors, and your right where you are with that kit but with the potential for WAY more power... mate the turbo setup with a killer standalone and your pushing 400 to the wheels, instead of the 180-200 for the 4k in the stroker kit.

    basically if your swimming in a pool of money sure go for it... then again if your swimming in a pool of money you can ask yourself why the hell your wasting your time with a 1500... excuse me 1600 dollar car its a spendy mod... i would never call someone stupid for getting it but you really need to consider if its in your budget... and a good way to do that is if your not already turbo this probably wont work to your favor. it costs 2k to slap a turbo onto a bg and if your dreaming of a turbo and a 4k dollar stroker kit... work on the easy stuff (turbo) then save up for the expensive stuff... but if you cannot even get the cheap stuff your never going to get anything.
    There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

      It's using Carrillo Rods and Wiseco pistons with a custom forged crank... it's not worth it unless you are seriously into racing.
