IMO: 400 ponies on a tiny car should be a nice sleeper. paintjobs and other miscellaneous bling will get you attention. Get the attention AFTER you can back it up. Nobody is going to believe you bought a Saturn to pimp out without having done anything to the engine.

:word:

However when you speak of this 400 hp, you keep saying forged engine, which is leading me to believe you won’t have a 400 hp car.

do you have these parts or this this the plan/dream? I’m sorry I’m not picking on you personally, but I just wanna smash all these fucking people who are sayers and not do’ers.  
Other than than that, looks like a solid setup. I dunno if you should bother with the cryo intercooler sprayer though only on 8 psi, seems like a waste IMO.
