first off its called a vg30et, and as far i know i think it can handle around 400hp on stock internals (correct if wrong)

450-500hp is possible on the stock bottom end. Though above 450 is pushing it. It is a really good engine.

You can NOT make it TT. Single turbo is better anyways.

yeah it does say 3000 turbo on top of the intake. i just found out that it came out of a 1985. is that still good? and if i wear to build this thing from the ground up. what steps should i take and so forth? and 400 hp on just the borrom end? what do i have to do? :jawdrop: also would i be able to put nos on this?

bsaically what i'm wanting to do is do an engine swap in my DeLorean with this engine when it's all build up

you put a nitrous system on anything, yes the motor can still take 400hp on the stock bottom end.

to get to the 400hp mark, u would need a bigger turbo, intercooler, and lots of boost, i'm not sure what else, cause i only run NA cars

Yes you can put NITROUS on it. It is still good from an 85. What do you mean on just the bottom end?

Read this thread. http://www.nissanforums.com/showthread.php?t=90001 it will tell you most of what you will need. I left the ignition out. Stock ignition might be able to support all the work. But I would go with an MSD and MSD coil pack to be safe.
