- EJ22TT closed-deck short block bored/stroked to 1.6L+, all forged internals
- Custom intake w/ dry-ice box
- GIANT turbo
- custom FMIC
- headers back custom exhaust (no cats)
- 800cc injectors, fuel rails, and a beefy fuel pump
- stand alone engine management
- custom clutch, tranny, differentials, and probably axels to handle the power
- And you'd need to run 110 leaded minimum... all the time
- And nitrous... all the time :shock:

And after all that, Dean would still kill you at AutoX...
Personally I think it would be easier just to go with the dual EJ257 mod.
