ya but all that is, is a 2.0, w/ vvt, and a maxed out turbo, jimbo will be making close to 400 hp, so it will not even be comparable to the lnf.

lnf is a nice motor, but that turbo is tiny!. at 21 psi it barely makes 260hp at the crank. i'll walk the **** oughta an lnf when i'm done.

your absolutely right stage kits will be awesone on the lnf, but i'm hoping my custom intake manifold will offset the sidi and vvt. it should flow much better and it will have a 4 inch plenum

i'm hoping 3500, we'll see though

Hey jimbo, in order to get your hpt to work on you vista, try right clicking the hpt icon on the desktop got to the properties, then you should have 3 tabs that look like this.
Click the "Compatibility" tab then go down to the "Compatibility Mode" box.

Check the little box to activate it.

Then select the option that should say "XP"(or something similar, mine doesn't have that b/c i have XP not Vista), select "OK" and try to open the program, if it doesn't work for you just reverse what I told you to do and everything will go back the way it was before.

oh i definately will, the throttle body will be much larger as well. can't decide between the colorado tb or the ls1 tb. prolly go with the colorado one though because it will be much easier to use.
