If you keep your D17 you will never win... unless you take on your grandmother in a KIA... If you have the money you can put in an F-16 jet engine in your car like that guy in CA with his Beetle... You could literally put anything in your car if you had money... but K series is the more logical... you do k20 or k24 and turbo look to drop 10 grand if not more.
Turboing your ex will still lose to a k20 n/a I am pretty sure about it...

screw an f-16 engine they are too big and use thruse, get a yellow tagged alision 250 - 450 shaft hp, and it weights about 200 pounds. and its small enough to stuff in you engine bay still, and power the front wheels.

Thats not true. A boosted d17 with built internals can handle up to 300 hp.
