RPM's

You has them. As well as gearing playing a big part, it's not some arbitrary FWD vs RWD arguement.

It's power delivery, when, where, and at what RPM with respect to the gearbox.

What are you all ----- hurt about? That I would rather have a muscle car? I got a civic, I know damn well given half the money I have dropped into my Trans Am it would be way faster. But it is a labor of love. I like working on my civic don't get me wrong. But I grew up loving muscle cars that is just my opinion. Didn't know it was going to get your thong wedged up your ***. So yeah in my opinion I would take a 600 hp challenger over a 600 hp civic anyday. I am not worried about what quarter mile I would run or the fact that I would get raped by 4 cylinders. That isn't what I said at all.

OMG... lol

Anyways... we did more tunning and ends up we need to upgrade the fuel system. so that is being done now and it should make a little more power. We're trying to push it to 550. And note this, we arnt trying to make a full blown race car; this is a car that can woop some *** at the track and be DAILY drivin. And its only boosting 6.5 psi.

On the dyno, and a shity corvette.

video link again... http://youtube.com/watch?v=P9SRAxR9_M4
