laracroft said:yeah, no kidding. And no, there aren't any 500hp Mazdaspeed's on here. If there are, they're on a racing team with the SCCA. Sorry. Get another platform, it's not worth spending the est. $7k to get it to those numbers.
SpeedBeaver said:I heard a couple of stories about the fd block just splitting in two over 400whp. I said "Heard" people (no bashing please). I guess they just didn't prepared the block properly. But you'll definitely need a crazy build to be able to get your fs block to handle the heat and stress.
Before starting I suggess you to spend less than $30 and get a copy of Corky Bell's "Maximum Boost" so you can get a better grasp of what you need to do. Also, do a search on this forum for "Crankwalk".

You think you can get 500hp for 7k?
7K won't even get you the built motor and trans you'll need to handle all of that power.
