On the intel job I just started I'm really stoked. One of the guys that I'm working with has a partner with a fab shop and they build turbo kits. They designed one for a 06 eclipse that was at sema a few years ago. He told me that he is really considering using my car as a prototype for their kit for the z. My warrantee is expired and I never had the oil consumption test done on my motor. Its an 06 and I'm pretty sure that I have the oil issue, just not sure how badly. Oil consumption really tends to vary. Now I'm not sure if this part is in the right area, but what would you recommend as far as a motor build for the tt setup. I've read 400-450 hp is about all that you can safely do stock, but with the oil issue I figured may as well fix it right. Any suggestions as far as building the motor would be awesome. I'm probably shooting for 450-550 motor hp.

set aside appx $10-12K to start, its not just the built motor that costs, but all the other incidentals that go along with doing it "right".

 

thanks for the input so far. I might have been better off posting this origionally in the pacific nw forum as far as a reputable shop. I might really get lucky the guy at work is just more or less looking for a car to use so it sounds like the rest of it tuning, turbos, bovs, etc. would be covered. Just need to do the motor first.
