Ah the glamour of horse power!

There is no such figure that the chassis will be limited to so its a bit of an unanswerable question. I would decide exactly what you would like to do with the car and then work out how to acheive it. Thats all part of the learning process. Do you want a car that handles really well or one that is great sprinting between traffic lights? Are you going to use it competitively if so what form? Is it for show? Answer those questions and then you are on the way to deciding the package.

The CB Perf. Hideaway Turbo looks fairly crude to me. For a start there is no intercooler that would provide reliability (and power). The pressure side creates a horrible turbulance where it splits to serve the two throttle bodies. Overall the package looks 20 years out of date!. An intercooler could I think be sited at the split position and feed in two directions. That should be easy to engineer especially as its only air in the flow so there is no worry about keeping fuel in suspension.
