honestly I'd prefer for a big single turbo or a couple medium sized twins, but on the small budget I'm on it's just not worthwhile. I don't need 600+ HP all the time, but near that at the push of a button is definitely fun.

It's my daily driver on 18" street radials (not even a drag radial) so trying to control 400+ hp all the time is going to be enough for me, having 600+ that a blower on this motor would surely give me is just way too much.


Plus much over 600 and I'm looking at 4l80e or th400 territory, and having this trans built for 2 grand opposed to 4500 for a 4l80e (to keep overdrive) or cruising at 4500rpm with a 3spd driving 50 miles round trip to work just isn't going to happen haha.
