Yeah, Paul mentioned about the cylinder walls, and having to get them sleeved, which is a problem in itself to ensure that it was done properly and can handle boost.

I have the bolt info that you sent me on J32a for the top cover for the IM.

Also, once I have the parts and have confirmed, I can add the info about the custom 4" CAI.

Yea sleeving isn't the problem (well finding a company that will sleeve it would be hard, talk to LA Sleeves ;) I'm using them on my H26a-T blue top stroker build) but the problem is that you would need to bore it out to 93mm if I'm correct? I was reading about it 6 months ago so correct me if I'm wrong.

The Turbo build thread will be VERY VERY LONG. What I think we should do is, I'll make my own build thread on it and you guys ask question in here or in there. Ill go over all the turbo questions in here like "should i use this turbo, or that, what wastegate/wategate spings, bov, intercooler, ect." turbos get complex because of the supporting mods YOU NEED. For example: I have to use a twin disk clutch, its going to run me $1400. Am I happy about that? F*** no but I NEED it. Slicks, tire size, axles, standalones, piggybacks, tuners, rotational mass, brakes, and last but most important THE FUEL SYSTEM!. Will you go e85 or pump gas? a lll these questions will be answered when someone asks and I will organize it as time goes on into the first page.

I guess theres not much you can do with a j30a1?

Modding the J30a1 isn't really that worth it. Yes you can throw some J35 heads on it, J32a2 cams, stroke it to a j33. its just inferior by far the the other motors. it would actually be cheaper swap a different j then build the j30a1. you'll have more performance out of the box
