If this is going to be a pump gas build why didn't you go with a larger bore to make more power with less boost? I was wondering that the whole time I was reading it.

Hi again !

I guess that would go to Ron seeing as he has my home and cell number!

Thanks! Picked the car up yesterday and she flies like a bat out of hell..torque is unbelievable! But what amazed me the most is how professional the build was..Buddy is an A++ mechanic and very meticulous..no corners cut! And I could not believe the driveability and tune..car is so docile at low speeds it feels like a regular stock coupe..until you get into the gas!

Forgot to add that average MPG on a 5 1/2 hr trip was 25.9!!!! And yes, that was through tiny towns, interstate driving and boosting it a few times!
