wow. . . umm ok . .

the 'power adder' isnt just anything that adds power, a power adder is one of three things TurboCharger, Supercharger, or Nitrous Oxide.

what you are talking about is an engine swap, and i believe you'll see more then 30hp i think those had like 300hp as opposed to your 215 (stock vs stock)
