Well one of my friend who is driving a new Audi A6 mocked my beloved cefiro a33 for being sluggish and underpowered. So bragged that "german engineering will also be worlds ahead than Japanese engineering" yes I know it is underpowered but I think he deserves a lesson :D. Thus, since I have some spare time, I would like to do some upgrades. Plan on plonking in a 3000cc VQ30DE( 230 PS (170 kW; 230 hp) and 217 lb·ft (294 N·m) (engine lantai, full wiring) and plan on a bolt on turbo(custom). I might look for a manual transmission too but it is very rare for my model.
So the upgrade would be a bigger engine(1000CC) and a bolt on turbo(low boost), engine management(e- manage), 3.0inch piping
So I need some advice, my aim is around 300HP. I plan for long term reliability, not much of performance. Do I need to strengthen the internals of the engine and do I need an intercooler if I plan on going for low boost? For the turbo, what brand should I go for or what specifications, I do not plan for any future modifications... any other advice would be appreciated, and also well lets just ignore about the "endorsing" part
