turbo,fuelling, injectors, exhaust,ecu, heads, cams, ignition, maf, gearbox, drivetrain. what about all of those. unless you give us more info, then how long is a piece of string. don't expect to get big power reliably unless you have very deep pockets

For the price of a second hand closed deck, its worth the trouble if your spending money on nice rods and pistons. However Some are running around 500 on the 2LT non closed deck, not my choise though.
