choice bro thats not very fair to say wen ur not sure how good the engine's running, although he wont get his hopes up this way. Im not sure wot exactly the 3 1/2 would do to effect performance but i'de say between 70 and 85, a brand nu stock n/a should make 79 as i was told, if thats true a decent n/a with the above mods would make over 80 4 sure

Anything above 85rwkw would be a decent figure for your n/a .. Around 85-95 would be my guess.

I'm not sure if i wanna go turbo. Or be different and build a tough N/A, for example 3.2ltr stroker!

you would build a tough na if you valued being different more than money. also turbo is better bang for buck, once again if you like being different go NA. how much exactly you spent syrus? that seems like a high figure for a non turbs. turbo on 7 psi with pretty good condition motor using stock vlt bolt ons makes 140 rwkw. being a shade under that with na sohc seems a bit hard to beleive.

Decided i'm gonna be different and build a tough NA. At the moment its stock as a rock right down to the am/fm cassete radio. First things first, convert to manual!

It's nice to be different, but your fighting a battle that will get you absolutely nowhere.
