The factory motor is actually really good with a turbo kit and I'm sure once we build our engine up with our "Pro Comp" treatment we will have no problem pushing 600+ whp reliably. Hooking that up and having the rest of the driveline handle that is a whole other story

Yea, I share the same thoughts. It's doing well under boost.
