Chris still doesn't know what he's talking about. Don't listen to CCA4.

Automatic 12V 2.8 is the way to go. Lots of performance parts available for it. Strip the car down to its bare bone. Low 8 second 1/4 mile.

I ran a BOV on my 01 1.8t for a while. I just got shitty gas milage, but it was ok. Really no point in doing it though. I ended up recircing it anyway.

I had a 30v 2.8 so I totally agree with this statement.

Pat made the wrong decision by getting the 30V. Those are quick but there are no mods available for it, unlike the 12V brother.

Nick - You forgot to mention Camaro "SS". And also Corvette ZR1's on quarter mile.

I don't like bragging about how fast my car is, so I left out the really fast cars...

We're ********. We should never be in the same room together.
