Re: pros and cons of boosting an h22
THere's only positive stuff about bosoting the h22.
Just get at least a stage 3 t3/t4 or a borgwarner rhb62. The usual junk yard T3's are too small.
Injector wize, forget about the DSM blue tops....you need 550 ccm minimum and you will almost max them out at 8-9 psi. Oh, and tune it with anything allowing to draw your own fuel and timing curves, such as uberdata or crome. No piggy back systems on this nice engine please!

Re: pros and cons of boosting an h22
cons:
if you really wana go big, you will have to resleeve. even if you dont go big, its good to relsleeve the block for reliability. FRM sleeves suxors. as long as you have a strong tune tho, you should be good for a while.

yeah my ecu is already chipped and ready to tuned on crome 
also it will be tuned by a very good tuner... im not looking to push the motor at all... just get something more out of it... maybe a set of dsm's will be ok for 5-6 pounds
