Also, where did you get those pistons and how much?
I like the idea of a self contained oiling sytem for many reasons. You guys just do not get it. I did not come here to debate whether or not I should do it.
If you are refering to the forged pistons. They are JE Pistons provided by the SHO Shop. If you want some Forged Wiseco pistons with just about any compression ratio, go to www.shonutperformance.com
Again, I am not hear to discuss whether or not I should go turbo... I'm already set up for a supercharger, and with an 89 SHO running 520whp on 17lbs of boost in my very neighborhood, I'll be happy with what I am doing.
As far as turbo vs SC.... Here is the "slower" of the SC cars around here with 445whp(3700 lbs). It seems to be doing fine.

As far as the 'mad' comment. I forgot I posted this. The forum stopped e-mailing me with replies and I was not too concerned.
