sorry, your a LONG way from 200hp.
no, you cannot just swap heads. its basicly a 3sgte swap, + machine work, custom pistons, and a bunch of fabrication to get working properly.
those electric turbo things are junk. dont even bother, you'll just get made fun of. wink.gif
your "racing chip" is a resistor that fools the engine into thinking the engine is cold at all times, so it dumps more fuel in.
if anything you'll lose power with it, IMO.
what exactly is a "duel" cold air intake?
