I was considering not using forced induction and just seeing what that motor could do but I decided that leaves a lot of room for improvement. Is it practical to push the motor then add a turbo(s) later? That could cut the cost and time down until I want to toss on some boost.
Is cost the worst part of tuning these or is it a side effect of obstacles?
Where can I find info on the EMS' available right now?

To do things right you
need to plan your hp/tq numbers first.
YT has his EM solution thread, thats going to be a big opener for performance builds around here!
You can use pretty much any EM you want, but theres different costs and work associated with them.
If you build a motor to run lots of boost, but then run it N/A you're going to be way down on power.
And again, you will want to break in your motor already under boost for longevity. It will also be a better running motor.
Suspension>MT swap>EM>Turbo (low boost)>built motor>Turbo (high boost)
That should be your steps to a proper high-hp SVX.
Get all your ducks lined up and start making serious plans and you'll start to realize just how much is involved.
And going through a build with that process will probably get you to a performance level you are happy with, well before a built motor and lots of boost!
