Whereas, you've taken 3 years and the car isnt starting still, plus you had to change the diff and will be engineering to put it on the road as an na let alone the legality to make it turbo v8, a turbo redblock may not make as much power, but sometimes its not just about max power either.
As you cannot use the max power anyway 90% of the time, as you've said, you turn the boost down anyway.
Maybe he's aiming for a 9 second pass at the track?? Feed your "90+ manifold" redblock 45 psi of boost and see how many passes it can achieve whilst still being able to drive home. It's taken a while as maybe he has other priorities in life to commit too? Get out of this thread, you're a idiot, and have completely missed the point of this build.
