        And if you're doing a Rwd conversion just buy a ls1 camaro. You can get them for 2000-3000. There's all the motor/drivetrain parts and that would fill your HP needs better than any bp.

          tend to be the type that dont get very far, not saying you are this type of a person but its a slippery slope and the locals are going to call you out on aspects of your build that you havnt researched if your going to make ambitious claims.
          its not that they are personally attacking you, but if you are a bull****ter waisting time, they will know lol.

            Wasn't there a miata on here a while back with a BP that was like 700hp?

            And usually the ones who will ACTUALLY build a BP for 500+ hp, don't need to ask how to do it, just my 2 cents

            1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
            1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
            2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

            1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                      You want those numbers outta that engine you will spend a great deal more than three grand. You will need the stroker kit from FM. Almost 5k all by itself. Shortcuts there are none. Look...my engine is doing somewhere around 320 whp. That's lets see now carry the 1, um quite a bit of hp/liter. 500? Hmm. Doable but a grenade with the pin pulled out. Maybe last half a dozwn passes...
                      '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
                      '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
