well said RS_guy

I have done most of the stuff he talked about. (all the bolt ones, porting everything, milling the head with 3/5 valve job, 2.5 test pipe-back, AFC, plugs wires and all. all what I have not done is cams (well I had some regrinds a year or 2 ago but sold them to smog my car) I also don't have cam gears, valve springs or SS over sized valves yet.

doing all that, my car feels faster than b4 but I am sure any turbo charged 420A running only 5 psi would easily whoop on me.

I think I have spent $1500 plus on just bolt ons, and around 1K on all head, intake manifold, TB porting that's with no labor. so that adds up to atleast $2500. and as we know for that much of money you can get a turbo kit which will make your car way faster than doing what I have done.

so why I am still staying NA, umm I just wanna be different, I know I will not be any faster than others with turbo kit, but I am planning to have one of the fastest NA 420 out there, that would happen any soon tho but I am working on it.
