Engine Swap?

RE: Engine Swap?
i'd say for optimum short term (note, not long term reliability) go with a single intercooled turbo (they havent quite gotten the twin setup right just yet) and nitro. OR if you have the cash, get an intercooled supercharger and get forged internals form a local reputable shop

RE: Engine Swap?
So what is it, Is their a way to run a single intercooled turbo on our 4.0's? yes or no? or would a supercharger be more reliable? if i get a turbo i will only run it at 6-7 psi as a daily driver, will this be the best way to make it reliable? my definition of reliable is not having to take apart the engine to replace something broken, or nothing costing more than 1k to fix. I'll probably end up finding a shop and fixing it myself, first time for everything depending on the difficulty.

Yea that all fine and dandy, but don't i have to put down 5k to pay for the parts? 5k is what i dom't have, but thnx for the suggestion

Its not really an option for me, but i like ur TQ numbers. I want the power to always be their, If the Powerhouse turbo isn't found reliable enough then i will just get the X-challenger twin screw w/ intercooler either way i will get my power fix.
