-Grand nasties run 11's pretty easily, they were one of the few cars i was afraid on in my honda. Especially if they had a nice lumpy idle.

-BOV's serve no purpose other than protection from compressor surge, why on earth would you change to one when a good DV will work better. Oh yeah i remember, FnF made that pssft sound cool. Damn ricers, its called function over fashion, not vice versa.

Hey, whatever floats your boat. My dad GN is the '84 Grand National eXperiemt. it was an experiemental engine, and it wasnt build as fast as '85 and '86 GN. talk about a sleeper though.
