OK, here is THE question. If I acquired a stock S2 and wanted to implement your mods piece by piece what would the total cost of parts be?

If Im doing a build and want to stay stock sleeve with 200K miles on the car what all would I need to do to make sure the block and sleeves are ok?

compression and leak down test, if that checks out I would upgrade the valvetrain, at 200k things prob have lost some of their strength

No problem, I am doing a few more changes this off season and will update as I go.

I really candy give you a number but if you add up the large parts you will be well over 20k.

Compression test is the most telling for the condition of the bottom end as a screening tool. If everything looks good there and it has been well maintained then it should do pretty well.

Hello. I know you did this awhile ago but. Could you help me out on fueling. I'm barely starting the modding. I wanted to know should I do a single vs a double in tank pump. The 450 walboros.

On ethanol you will need dual pumps for sure to achieve that horsepower using a dual hanger system.
