My quick comments...

1) I would be leary putting a turbo or blowzilla on a stock bottom end that's already making 300 rwhp or ~360 at the crank. IMO you'll put alot of money into the turbo/blower/fuel system and then break something.

2) A 408 would make a ton of power and would be unique. Plus a new 408 would be reliable power for many years.

3) I'm not sure what kind of clutch, tranny, axles, rear-end you've got...but consider these in your decision as well. All that power could easily destroy a T-5 or stock axles with ET Streets on them.

Just some thoughts.
