Geo Metro turbo Forged engine startup

This is a fully forged block. This is a 75 mm bore with forged 8.5 to 1 pistons on top of h-beam rods. HD head gasket, ARP studs, Garrett gt22 56v variable nozzle turbocharger feeding through a air-to-water intercooler. Blow off valve is an HKS ssqv

I have a 92 convertible. Question... Will you have a video breaking down costs and troubles? Gotta give you props you have what i desire lol. Keep up the awesome work!

No. I will tell you, the rods and pistons are near $2500. Between machining, internals, studs, and the turbo manifold, there is close to 5k just in the motor. That does not include the turbo, exhaust, intercooler, heat exchangers, radiator, megasquirt...
You get the idea. It is a very costly project to mirror what I have done, I have accumulated those parts over the last decade.
