need the 411 on Zs

need to kno if my z is gonna be a good investment...91 TT. if i WERE to replace the turbos wit new ones, and put a moderate amount of boost, not overwhelming. would there need to be a lotta minor modifications to the fuel pump, valves, pistons, cams. in other words, does the z32 have a good fuel system that will withstand the extra output of new turbos? will the engine be able to handle a decent amount of boost without blowing a piston or needing extra modification? basically im trying to compare the Z to the mr2. because the mr2 engines and fuel system r said to handle a decent amount of boost in its stock form, is this true for the Zs?

there have been people who have done in the area of 750RWHP on a stock long block and stock fuel pump (and the stock Z32TT fuel pump is a common modification for high-horsepower supras).

if you're getting upgraded turbos (not new stock), then you'll probably want to go with bigger injectors. And don't forget to upgrade your ECU.

well... ARC are the best, but they're also $2113. Stillens are the next best though.
