        diego, it has a lot to do with the head. a 24v head flows a lot better in NA form. when that flow is pressurized, that benefit is even great. just a thought

            Yea, I brought that to his attention when I heard about the new project. Apparently he doesn't care about the wheel tire setup, his exact words anyway, and he also said:
            at the end of the day completely breaking lose in 2nd gear at 45mph will scare someone more than a good lanch anyway.
            Needless to say, I responded with a vast dissappointment. What a waste of an engine, time, and effort. It's his deal, so whatever he chooses, it's still a badass engine, but pointless since he won't take the steps to use it. I mentioned that I think his car would look the business with some riveted on fender flares and fat rubber. Hell, he has a full BMP Kit already. IE still sells the bolt on fender arch flares that BMP had designed for them.
