I didn't bump it for this goofiness. No way. I just had to comment on how funny it is to list it as a performance mod. You see, there's a general rule of thumb whereby if it's not a performance mod, it had better be darned unique to list anything else, or else you're a ricer. That's old news to you I'm sure. You know your stuff.
And if when I spray it's not my engine making more power, where is the spray going? IT'S THE SAME CONCEPT, FOR RICE'S SAKE! Both add additional oxygen so that you can add additional fuel, making more power. Simple.
I agree a turbo is better in most instances. Of course it is. My point was that you made it sound like they're so different, when they're first cousins. Maybe brothers. In my situation, it takes a substantial amount of money to make an LS1 reliable with a turbo. And I have no need. I make about 450rwhp NA. Why spend $10k to turbo it when I can spray it with a $600 kit that'll still put me at 600rwhp SAFELY AND RELIABLY if I choose? It's not like I could push the stock shortblock any higher on boost. Not to mention, this way it's only under stress when I say (or spray) so, instead of always like with a turbo (well, okay, only when in boost).
