Just curious not digging for too much info tho

stuff like

1 cubic inch of motor, on center or off

2 cam type (specs if you wish) roller , flat , solid or hydrolic

3 what heads and intake

4 single turbo or twins (sizes would be nice too )

5 what tranny and what stall

6 et/ mph ?? at what boost (dont be shy :D )

7 car weight

and if you were building it over again what would you do different ?

this could be a very interesting thread if most would take the time to reply

Hmm, I think some of you guys should consider the GTS76 vs the old q trim or even p trim thingies :) It does work alot better. Runs in the 145 mph range on a typical GN app, and seems to have no downside compared to the old 76's. Plus, it's not alot of cash either...
