I heared that getting your engine ported helps alot. What are your comments on this and anyplace you recommend in North Carolina to do this?

You need a new shaft cause your can't take a power like that....there's too much difference between your stock and 250HP...you'll need also a reinforced clutch and maybe engine mounts..

negative. that's incorrect. the GT axles and mounts will hold up just fine, even with a 3sgte. no problem. by the way, let's try and not post "definitive" information, or posts with a tone like this, if you aren't absolutley positive about the answer. this is why i don't come over here for tech help, everyone is confused or misinformed.

as for turboing the 5sfe, i respect you wanting to build the 5sfe. if you just want 200-250 HP, that's the way to go. the reason the 3sgte is a nice option is for it's potential. you can build it up a LOT higher than the 5sfe. but if you are like me, i just want some more zip, not crazy amounts, just some more. i mean, who wants to drive a 500 HP monster every day? not me.
