Advice on ???

So wanna get about 140hp+ to the wheels for the lest amount of money. So, a swap is out of the question since it is 6k+. Turbo seems nice but they are high maintance and with tuning, around here its about 5k all together.

So can i make all motor power like that when crower or some other companies come out with high compression pistions, rods, cams, and all that all motor goodness.

I third that. Nitrous is always a good option. If all you want is around 140hp then you'll save a little more on nitrous that way using the smaller jets. You wont have to fill the bottle as often.
