Nitrous + Turbo-block

Alright. While perusing my local yard I found a turbo volvo, scrapped of it's turbo and manifold. That's cool, whatever. So, the Duck got to thinking, "What if I just sprayed the shit out of this block in a lightened 240? I found a high milage 240 for $1200 and could get the engine for like $200. N02/NX kit for $400. Go incognito-style with the nitrous installation... watch as people laugh at my volvo at the tree ... then pump a 200-210 shot down the throat of the intake.

Anyone think this is a totally bad idea? How much of a shot are people running WITH nitrous?

It sounds like a good enough idea, but the car would be extremely slow when not sucking down the nitrous. Just something to consider. You could also take a little off the head to raise compression.

Or,

you could use a b230FT I do belive they aren't quite as low a compression afaik.
