I know I know And I resisted making this post! But after reading and searching I decided to just ask anyway. Dialogue helps me understand.
Ready?
FI or NA?!?!?!
It is a daily driver and I also have another car that I use for trips and such, so long rides aren't going to be an issue. It's a stock LS1 right now and i'm doing the suspension mods before I start adding power, so the 10 bolt ill be a 12.
What I want is an solid low to mid 11 second car that can hold its own on the street runs and against the newer stock camaro ss. I know the easy power is in the Turbo set-ups but i've never had or been around FI and it seems like a lot of variables. Too many for what I feel I'm looking for.
So bottom line, what is the power requirement to run a '98 formula at that level? It's an m6 so I can reliably do na up to 500rwhp.

There is no such thing as forced induction anymore, now its just collectively known as "adjustable atmosphere devices"
and if your question is simply [ no device vs having one], then yes, it is highly recommended you put a dial somewhere inside your vehicle that adjusts the atmospheric pressure of the engine, both for performance and longevity sake.

I have. I've decided I can built a fairly streetable 500rwhp reliably all motor and throw a 100 shot on top of that. I'm going to do a custom grind with tf heads, fast 92/92, intake package, Lt w cutout, and forged rods and Pistons when I'm ready for the nitrous.
I haven't quite got the details worked out yet but I'm getting there.
