6m ge with turbo, what kinda power?
 

what kind of power can i get with a 6m ge and a turbo, and how much power can i get with what kind of mods?

i say 6mge because theyre a lot cheaper than a 7mgte which i would like to get, but im only 17 with limited amounts of money, and i got hook ups for a turbo, hahah yeah cheap way but its what i can do. plus a 5m to a 6m should be a really easy swap anyway right?

Well the 6M is basicly a 7m short block with a 5m head..They are rated at 190hp and with some easy mods you should get 200 to 220 easy..First get rid of the EGR if you can.That should free up at least 5hp right there..Have the block decked to bump the compresion and get a HKS metal head gasket..Header and a full exhaust should free up some more along with a upgraded ignition..Pull the intake and have the head and intake port matched with each other..The plastic intake ducting should be replaced with a one peice unit to make air delivery smoother with a open air element air filter..After the intake and exhaust mods youll need to put some more fuel in which can be done by modding the MAFS..Now you should have the power of a stock 7M..If you add a turbo you should put everything above aside and you should get atleast a 50 to 60% increase in power..That will put a stock 6M at the 300hp barrier..More power is great and all but i decided to put my baby on a diet..Stock the MKII is about 3000lbs +..Ive gotten mine down to 2700 with my 170 in it..Good kuck..

Thanks, I'll start working on that as soon as i get a 6m, hahah dont have one at the moment, ill tell ya how it works out though, until then ill just keep doing other things to it, like body work needed as a result of previous owners -_-
