power pak questions please read.


I'm looking at purchasing a power pack and forged pistons this summer. i plan on eventually turbo'ing my 96 and putting maybe like a 125 shot in it. but thats where my questions come in. i was looking at the stage 2+ powerpak but then i was wondering, if i might possibly turbo or s/c it in the next year or so, should i go ahead and get the stage 3 powerpak? If i got the stage three, is it going to hurt my engine if i dont turbo or s/c it? And wouldnt this be sort of like rebuilding the engine block with upgraded internal parts? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If i got the stage 3 and didnt put an FI on it, would it matter, or is it just there for you to buy if you are looking to add the 100 hp, and includes parts that will hold up under boost pressure??

well the stage 3 is designed for FI but im sure it could be used with a N/A car as well... you can email them any questions about their powerpaks and they will respond and answer any questions better then we could... and if you want FI definitely get the forged pistons or the full forged rotating assembly

I always think FI means forged internals but you guys are talking about forced induction right

yeah.. FI is forced induction... when we are talking about forged internals... we will simply say forged internals or just forged
