Are you OK.........That must have sounded like a chainsaw in your ear!
I did the whole Honda turbo thing and $7000 later (just in motor&turbo) still couldn't make eye contact at red lights w/ other LS1's. I finally through in the towel, and got 4.10's,NOS,and a car that weighed a few hundred more than most imports......C5 vette! twice the HP w/ three times the TQ
Turbo 4 bangers have good peak HP#'s but suck when its time for TQ, thats where a V8 will get you.
