you're not the only one guys. It makes sense from about every perspective. But respecting Bill decision I try to keep my big-mouth shut.

Give him time, he'll come around eventually.

I think I'll be happy with 'Ridiculous Speed'!


The way I see it, I was more than content with my latest NA version. Only the recent FI craze pushed me to get the Vortech.
So at ~500 crank hp, I'm good.

Only reason why I went a little overboard with the new shortblock is that I never want that feeling in the back of my head of something possibly coming loose during full throttle/boost ever again. Ever.

Sound strategy Bill

But do you think you'll get HP creep................You know the desire to boost it a lil bit occasionally, I bet somewhere down the road you get the creep but you probably won't succumb to it

I'd bet a million bucks that Bill up's the boost by years end. He's already suffered through the hard part $$$. Uping the boost will be chump change and more than safe on the new block.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see..

If it were as easy as getting a smaller pulley and a new tune, maybe I would. But being that I have a non-cooled kit, it's alot more involved than that.. and that's what keeps me at bay.

Is there a link to the lakewood show for an entry flyer ??

+1 on the Turner event.
Also got to plan a POTR range visit at Sharpshooters in Torrance.

Lakewood show, 8/17, I should be good to go by then!
