well i know it has been awhile since i have posted but I have got a few new upgrades...
I came out of surgerory sun morning about 2am and the doctor had hopped me up with some stainless steel goodies. I recieved a 10in steel plate with ten screws another pin down the top of my foot and another handful of screws to put everything back together. I shattered my ankle into around 7 pieces.
I was out riding my mountain bike went for a short 1.5mi ride and i fell two houses away from home. The bad part was no cell phone so i laid in the street for about 15min i tried to get up and that is what broke the ankle even more.
Thought i would let you know this is the worst summer i have ever had and i apologize for not being around. For thoose who didnt know and thought i was being a dick in april my dad was diaganosed with brain cancer and that has really worn the whole family out, now i wont be able to walk for 6weeks so i thought i would bid this summer fairwell

Well I'm watching American Thunder on the SPEED channel and PROCHARGER makes a bolt on supercharger kit that doubles the horsepower of a stock Harley Davidson. I think that's pretty cool!

From everything I have read this sounds like the right turbo, but I would like to do some more research on it before going out and buying it.

QUESTION: Why is a 370 the hot ticket now with turbo guys?
I mean, the stock displacement of a LQ9 or LS2 is 364...why would people bore it over 30 to get 370? Wouldn't it be cheaper and just as efficient to just get stock bore pistons and rods??

Azar not sure if this is right or not but my suspicion is because several short block sellers / builders are offering 370 iron blocks with forged rotating assemblies for a good price coupled with the fact that the 370 would be more capable of spooling a large turbo quicker than an LS1 and wouldn't be into boost too soon like a 383 making the 370 a more manageable block. Then again you should just buy the right turbo for the application. So in closing the 370 is the hot ticket cuz everyone else is doin it
