You got it man.. I'd love to still run FFW Street Bandit, but the cost to keep up with those guys is out of hand.. Of course they're going 8.9x now with an N/A small block/stock suspension, bangin gears @ 9800 RPMS.. Trust me NOTHING boring about that..
makes me smile just thinkin about it...

With 13.5+ compression I don't think it'd be turbo friendly...

Get in a car that gives ya 1.35x short times and tell me if you can feel it or not..

I see...well thought I'd ask...the majority of boards out there have N/A forums and its just easier to find N/A related material rather than searching through a broad forum with un-N/A related material as well. But I can see everyones point. I do however use this board all the time and mainly the Honda/Acura tech and will continue to. Thanks for the replies.

Hey no problem.

Keep in mind I am putting a blow through turbo on my once N/A car so I am somewhat the pot calling the kettle black.

But hey, I wanted to do something different.

NA is usually a flatter torque curve so the SOTP feeling would feel soemwhat the same at diff points in the rpms... now Turbo really is fun, especially with the peaking torque effect it has that you can really feel...plus with an auto, its fun to launch into boost

but as always, id rather have 300ft/lbs all the way across perfectly flat than peaking at 315 and only being above 300 for ~1000RPM
