advise that you don't destroy your cars chassis with a huge engine.

Not only will it make your front heavy but if it's a turbo you probably rip
the entire front end of your car off. as apposed to only tearing the crap
out of it if it wasn't a turbo.

At the very least you will have to reenforce the entire body, upgrade to
the
corrado slc plus suspension and an 02a tranny (the 020 will explode with
that kind of horsepower).. blah blah blah.
