RE: kennebell-
well you could get the 2.2 and just run low boost, but you'll still need the cobra r hood and a couple other things it doesnt include. itll run you about 8 grand all together for the 2.2. me personally, id love to have it...but i can get a vortech intercooled for half that and be done with it.

RE: kennebell-
Go with the 1.7L kit at 9PSI Intercooled and ull be just fine on the stock block. However go over that and ur gonna be hurtin. If u decide later on down the road to build a new motor or forge the original, u can still use the same S/C cause the kit goes up to 14PSI. With 9PSI, Full Exhaust, CAI, and TB, ull pry be pushin around 415- 420HP.
