5 g's to buy a shell, motor, and turbo kit, capable of 350whp+???? If you can pull that off man, you rock

Anywho, dont base what your motor can handle off of horsepower.. Thats a mistake a LOT of people make... Base if off of torque... Torque is directly related to cylinder pressure, which is what causes sleeves to crack... Think about it, what do you think would last longer, a stock sleeved LS making 475hp/450tq, or a stock sleeved LS VTEC, making 475hp/380tq??? They both have the same HP, but the cylinder pressures of the straight LS are alot higher, making it more likely to crack a sleeve...
