That is just ME. I can't speak for any1 else on this topic - I assume that they will have different answers obviously. My last build (well, the last one that is on the street) was built for a SPECIFIC application - nitrous, and lots of it. ALSO - RELIABILITY --- and even knowing that Charles still wants to put a small turbo on it - LOL... silly man.

If I was going for all out power my LS wouldn't be 11.6 CR - it'd be 12.5 (and still capable of a big shot --- nitrous loves compression). I built something that is VERSATILE... I can slap a GSR head on it and some cams if I wanted a dyno queen or something that makes more power. I'm sure that most people know that trick heads is something that my wallet can handle. That's simply NOT what I had in mind this time... and come March if the stars align every1 will see the finished product turned all the way up and on a tire (thanx in part to Mr. Hinds). THIS particular build is a nitrous build - PERIOD... that's what I said out of the gate and I didn't get swayed by the many people around me making "more" power.

And just so the cats outta the bag - what's going in my new captiva blue shell is a high compression D series - and I'll piss that away by adding AC, some heavy 16s and all the amenities that a commuter car should have. I'm so gay. And I'll STILL appreciate all the many different accomplishemnts that my friends and colleagues are doing, even if it's above and beyond what I am doing. I am JUST as excited as getting my new shit out as I am watching other people's success.
