wow , i just ventured into this by accident and looky what i found. This argument is pointless.

Yes the 4g63 has the advantage. It was introduced in the 80's it has years for a head start. An ECU that loves boost, adequate injectors, stronger internals, a whimpy turbine for its rpm runs ( but a turbine is still an advantage). It was made to run... Take the boost off and it will be slow as shit, its a factor that has to be there.

Our cars are not meant for boost, our ECU's freak out , our internals are shit when under pressure and we are under powered. You want a more even match? why not match up the new neon turbos?

The v6 stang comparison to the v8 is also not a great one, im a firm believer , theres no replacement for displacement.

each engien has its strengths, each has its flaws. I have respect for both, with either one though there gets to the point where the average person cant hang... taking the 420 into the boost territory is far more impressive then working with a built platform.

about the times...those can vary. I sometimes spend time in the set up lanes with pro or semi pro draggers that run accross the nation. They all say that the east coast has an advantage, something about the air pressure over there. They all say they run a whole second ( or close to it ) on the east then they do at any track in the west. Just a tid bit i thought needed some thought.
