I dont have money to do the whole build at once, so...Should I get a built engine geared strictly for a TT. Or should I get the TT and save for an engine? Which would be more "fun". A little more details I would def get a built longblock with ported heads, cams, etc.

Go for the TT as far as fun factor goes. Building a motor for FI without actually having a Fi kit installed means you're going to lose some power due to a lower compression ratio.

Do a project.Build your motor break it in.At that time the TT kit will drop another 2'000 dollers.

What kit are you talking about? I've yet to see any FI kit drop in price on these cars.

Go with the tt, don't run over 400 rwhp and you may get lucky and it could last a long time. Maybe even shoot for 360-370 whp just to be safe. Just make sure you get a good tune. This should buy you enough time to build a motor on the side or purchase all the parts to build your motor and pray you don't put a window in your block. Overall you could have just as many issues building your block and slapping that back in your car as you would by putting a low boost tt on your stock block, so go for the most fun route and add boost!

Go for the TT set up first. Keep the power level at 400 rwhp 8-9 psi and a good tune, don't beat it to death and it will last. My car is a 03 with 62k on it with 31k boosted and still running strong with stock internals.

i say go tt on stock block. get a good exhaust system and you'll be happy.

Save and do both at once, boost is addicting for most and you will have a hard time staying under 400 and keep from beating her up.

I thought about this route, but unfortunately my mod bug won't let me. Ill end up buying something else.

I would say go with the TT first, stay 7psi's or below with a good tune just to make sure you have a motor to build when you are ready. I wont tell you what TT to get (JWT)...but stay low on the boost and you will be fine.

from what I have read JWT makes a good product, but I want to go the APS route.

APS is a complete kit. You can't go wrong with them. If you plan on building the motor in the future I would consider the Greddy TT. It will produce more power than the APS, or you could just go for the APS extreme. Just somthing to think about. You should talk with Jeremy at Performance Factory. He is located in Orlando and knows his stuff.

TT the stock block and drive it like you stole it. JK. :-)

throw it on the CC I was going to TT stock block as you are thinking of. But I figured since the motor is already out might as well save some decent $ on pulling it out again to build motor later. fwiw

What is your end all goal with the car?

I was looking for a reliable 400 - 500 hp. One were I could beat on the car as I do now without having to worry!! Greedy sounds like a good kit, but don't want to have the crossbar cut out
