Here is the question of the day...

What kind of life do you possibly have to where you can sit here all day and be a turd..seriously.
Have you seen the South Park Episode about World Of Warcraft.. you remind me of that fat guy that played it non stop..


When I grow up I wanna be a race car driver too, just like you..

oh man, too much. im all done. out of tricks. lol

buddy for what its worth to get back on topic, you should have no issue making 400-430 with your setup with a streetable cam, more power thenthat imo you will need more mods, or a hell of a lot of cam therefor not great street manners.
hope that helps. imo most of the real big power cam only cars are on the edge of bad on the stree.

anything can be done, it al depends on what you are looking for.
track only car that wont idle very well with all the bolt ons sure you can probably see 450 rwhp with fly cut pistions and possably cutting the heads a tad. but it wontbeeasy or streetable. however i guess streetable is an opinion as well. just cuz i zip tie a dealer plate to my parachute doesnt mean its streetable. lol

im going to say with some head tweeks, some more bolt ons, a serios serios cam and some lean *** tuning itis possable to be done. probably not threw the 4l60 e anda 12 bolt, but on a 6 speed 10 bolt car its possable. imo.

dont get me wrong, i kind of think QS is kind of rude and kind of a dink, but im not going to say it cant be done, easy no, impossable i dontthink so

i think the way you came across towars a respected knolagable and well like guy like pat, it hurt your integrity on here.
pat is very smart and after reading his post 3 times he was being honest and helpful, i think do to the internet thing maybe you took it wrong, but it is a true statment and in no way degrading towards you. just some shots taken online, its all good. i think this board has some real smart andhelpful people on it, and you and everyone else can learn alot from them.
good luck with your setup, and living in mass, im sure iwill see you up at ned some time. look for noyzee, or ask anyone up there who i am, most of them know me, good or bad. lol

I don't go to NED anymore. Not since I ran QuikStreet (QSPres, get it) and told Joe where to go when he turned it into a class for pussies......


Moving to Florida in about a year, once I sell my house and business. That's why I'm building this car. I'm going to drive it everyday!


Massachusetts sucks!
