He's boosting his SOHC, and looks like he prefers that over an srt.

I'm mixed on the 2.0 vs 2.4

Oh right on. I checked his garage out and saw nothing. Found his progress log though. Are there quite a few turbo 2.0 SOHC's running around making a reliable 300+ to the wheels? It is unique though, I just see too many turbo 2.0's blowing up.

^which is?

I'm doin a 2.0 cus its different. And yes it can b done reliably. At 8 psi I'm gonna b as fast, most likely faster then a stock SRT

I would hope so, with the size of the turbo you are putting on there and various bolt ons with a tune. Should be a blast when its done.

All motor, it's a waste of time going with a 2.0.

As for boosted, with how cheap you can build an SRT'd bottom end, I don't know why people go with the 2.0's. I always laugh when I hear "to be different". There's a reason it's "different". But to each his own. If you really wanna be different, get the 2.2L stroker kit as well.

I never quite understood this. Why throw a big turbo on a stock bottom 2.0 and keep it out of its efficiency range? You say it'll be faster than a stock SRT but, at 8psi, that's all it'll ever be until you either chuck the 2.0 or build it.

I think he's planning on building it after.

idk, I'm building a boosted 2.0 and there's no turning back now, already spent too much to switch to a 2.4 :rofl:

What exactly won't swap over? Cheap bolt on parts, that's what.

Trade 2.0 bottom end to someone with a 2.4 that wants to be different, straight up. Or for a profit. Port 2.0 head and sell it to someone with NA aspirations, buy 2.4 head. Probably another profit. Build a boosted 2.4 and win!

Pull them, sell the bare short block, then part out the internals for a sleight loss. Buy 2.4 and build. You'll be more happy.

Good to be back. Trying to work an SRT angle looking at 2 one is a stock 05 with 25K miles or a stock looks 300 hp 05 with 55k miles

Already spent too much on rebuilding the 2.0, wouldnt even come close to breaking even if I sold it all.

Can't buy an SRT4, insurance alone will rape me. It would still be more expensive, AND I wouldn't be able to sell my car for anything more than $2k, even then I'd be lucky.

i really just like my 2.0l (and it's alread in the car) and i'm happy enough to just have a DOHC head for now. trust me it was a hard choice but im gonna stick it out. plus pretty sure the wife would :slap: if she saw me pull the engine again (it's been out of comission since dec and it was my DD)

Get the stock low mileage one. I was sitting round 300 (undyno'd, but the same mods as so many dyno proven 300's) for around 3k on the stocker I bought. And you're 30k miles under on maintenance costs.

Of course, if you can find one at 300hp with immaculate maintenance records at 50k+, get that one.

Good luck, tittyman. (fuck a boobie mod {<3 u Chris})

ETA: A large portion of that 3k was cosmetic shit. You should be able to easily run a stocker from 235 to 300 with $1800 or less, running used parts. Biggest mod is going to be a simple WGA pushing 18-20PSI. But you know this.
