Most people will answer get a GSX with that... if you plan sticking on this one though, beef up the internals, cilinders, rods, bearings, get a more resistent head gasket cuz the one you have will boom, and if its a 98 like mine, id take it to a full service specially on the suspension, you dont want having one thats almost 10 years there, with that youll be able to crank up the boost to around 15, i think (correct me people), the stock crank should be fine up to 300 hp (reachable on a 420a? lots of mods....) and if i was you id get a lightweight flywheel, there you go, 6000 spent, EASY... a third or more on just the internals.

Well, it sounds like you've put a lot of time and money into her already so my opinion would be for you to stay with what you have and build the internals and get a 4 layer cometic and balance too. **edit...Lol, I'm basically agreeing with KN ...and the 420a is capable of 300chp so be careful.**
