Fair question. Maybe I should reword my initial post to be more clear. The "bigger turbo and a well-built block" is what I'm primarily looking for or would be my end goal someday. I realize that's a needle in a haystack, so would consider a stock turbo build if it fit my taste with...

I have discussed with him a little about it, but appreciate the tip

Same old bump every few months. Still got the cash, still looking.

Rather than repost the same thing, maybe I'll bump it back to the top. Just in case there's somebody new on here or that changed their mind. Still looking and still have cash!

Idk if you were replying to my original post or someone else, but just in case I wasn't clear in my original post, I have the cash and am looking to pay cash.

I know there are classifieds on here, and I check them multiple times a day. If you're anything like me, then you despise selling a car. Especially a car that doesn't fit to just trade it in or sell along the road. Craigslist and Facebook marketplace bring an endless stream of scammers...

I'm sure it's state specific, but any experience with registering a goblin (or any kit car) that had been previously titled/registered? I'm familiar with the general requirements for any car purchased out of state, VIN inspection, etc., but curious if there are any additional hoops to jump...

Yep, I got ahold of him. I'll just take this down now. Thanks for the input. Edit: I guess you can't delete threads on here? Jerry got me all kinds of info on it, what an insane build.

Anyone familiar with a couple of goblins from Minnesota? Jerry had a big hp turbo build, and Dan had a supercharged version, I think? I don't know them personally, but they were active on facebook, Powercruise did a writeup on them, etc. I'm not trying to pry into their personal life, I just...

Oh I know he has big hp, but I wouldn't say he only drives it on the street lol. Trust me, I chase numbers as much as the next guy (who would build a 500 whp cobalt?!). I think I've already got my answer, and that turbo is def where I'll be happy, but a moderate build on stock internals is...

Appreciate the replies, that is what I'm looking for. It sounds like a conservative/reliably built turbo option will make me happy. No need to push it too crazy, as I won't get the good out of it. Somewhere in the 300s feels like a good balance.

I realize this question is all a matter of opinion, just looking for some input from personal experience, especially from anyone who's personally compared both. I'm looking to soon buy a goblin as a logical next step from my experience with cobalts. I have built/worked on plenty of ecotecs, my...
