How about adding a N/A Buildup to the magazine?

You guys have too many turbo projects and alot of people I'm sure are interested in getting the most out of what they have and not have to spend money on engine swaps and turbo kits to get the power they want. Plus they want to show up some of these Honda guys with equal power numbers and good torque production.

For the price of a DET and a Hotshot DET swap kit, you could build a very powerful street SR20 and still pass emissions.

I know Thomas' NX2000 is available for such a buildup...

We just recently introduced a Classic SE-R (Project Beater SE-R) for just that reason..low price car with heaps of potential.... it will include all the bolt on goodies..... Project 200SX went through all the bolt ons before turning to turbo.. Project Altima is not a Turbo, nor is the Spec V or 240SX..

Actually we have 9 ongoing projects... only 3 are turbo

plus we have a 2 or 3 part series on swapping in a SR20VE in this months issue...

We do the best we can...

Well many headers, intakes...etc.. are not "street legal" in many states. no way a built Sr20 can stay even close to a built DET... and neither would pass visual inspection associated with emissions tests (in some states).
