Save and buy new .
If you don't want to do that . Make sure it's a gen 2 2.3
If you don't care about emissions testing go with the tvs

to answer your questions no you have the other parts figured out. after everything is installed you will want a custom dyno tune. enjoy your new power

Depends on the cost of the tvs as I would rather that but it is not in my budget right now. I'm just looking for 560-600 whp for right now. The Whipple comes with the 3.0 upper so hopefully will be in that range. From my research I should see 17-18 lbs boost with stock headers?
Yes I will need to by a single blade accufab tb. That's currently what he is running but keeping it. And it is the gen 2 it has the sight glass

What are the chances of my stock clutch holding up for a little while? Clutch only has 8k miles and has only been street driven

^ yea my bad haha . I messaged him. This forum acts up when I'm on my phone.
If he's having a Black Friday deal ontop of the 0% financing ill probably jump on that.
Know of anyone running stock tb on the tvs? And what pulley would you recommend to make around ~600 whp?

I think guys are using the dragon single blade t/b vs the gt500 t/b. good deal, always like to see guys get more hp power.lol

On vmp site their is an option for stock tb inlet. So I was talking about the 03-04 tb. Unless I'm reading it wrong
