Default Best block + turbo for $6g's

So it's time to get a new setup. I need recommendations on a shortblock and turbo setup for $6 grand. I've been thinking cosworth or axis with a gt35r setup

I don't think you will be able to get a built motor and a GT35R kit for $6K. You are forgetting that you also need fuel system upgrade, EM, tuning, and lots and lots of little things.

-check that out and talk to mike about it. his name on here is inn-tune. he will give you a price for a built block, turbo kit and everything that you need. Or just talk to any vendor that carries both turbo kits and blocks.

crawford performance S3Lh block
crawford performance 35r
and other stuff you need to get this going you may consider a clutch
i just got my car tuned with this today and its really good it was about 14g more or less
on pump got 465hp at crank and about the same for torque crank
thought it might help and i am getting rid of my short block if you want to prep that so you dont have that much down time.
