because the key to making power with FI is reving higher

Built D will make more power, go with that.

If you're still building power after 7000, yeah it will make more power. What is the most power you've seen out of a built D? 500? What is the most you've seen out of a built B? What's the most you've seen out of a stock D? 300? What's the most you've seen out of a stock B?

No matter how you look at it, the B will make more power. D's are fun to ---- around with, but if you're looking for the most power a D is NOT the way to go.

amount of power made isn't dependent on whether a motor is stock or built, all that means is it can handle more power a stock b will make much more power than a built d on the same set up at the same amount of boost, period. the only thing that limits you is how much power you plan to make and run every day.
