you build up a vehicle to withstand the pressures of um....beating on it!
if your motor cant handle the tune...than I see the tune as a failure!
You are more than a bit deluded my young friend. There are almost no cars on the street and few built ones that can handle dedicated racing regardless of it being on a road course or a quarter mile.

Why so anti snail my friend? Do you realize that the TT and T cars spend a lot less time in boost than you would think? Do you realize that unlike the snails the SC engine is always in boost?

There are Vortechs that can do that, however it takes a lot more comparitive effort to get them there than a standard T or TT setup. Pound per pound of boost the T/TT is going to be putting more power to the crankshaft/wheels than an SC, there aren't the parasitic losses to deal with.

Again, you'd be surprised how little time you are in boost with a T/TT kit. If I'm doing 60 mph and hit the gas a bit, I'm up to 100 like nothing. Even a stock G is going to get there quickly. If I'm starting from a stop, how long do you think I can stay in boost? I need to have my engine under load and my foot on the gas (or the blow off is going to come in) for what 3-4 seconds by which time I'm well on my way to 60 mph (even a stock G is only 2 seconds longer than that).

Angelina did Gia. Gia was a notorious druggie and I thought lesbian. I don't doubt that there was a link to that film, or some other link with sleazbian action.
That Gia movie was great. Lots of AJ lesbo action.

Not to mention that SC's sound like crap compared to a TT.
When I do the normal run it's like that, but when I push mine hard it's more like................RRRRRRRAAAAAAWWWWWWRRRRRRR!!!! !!! pssssst ppssst pssst psssst psssst........

i hear ya Gzire. no hard feelings. I just think S/C's are unfairly persecuted. There is too much resentment againts them.
honestly, I would love a TT setup - - - - but I would equally enjoy a roots type supercharger....and your still gonna have a BOV with a centrifugal

Yup, you can set a snail SC with a BOV. I don't hate against SC's Neal. Hey they still rule NHRA although the rival import based scene is gathering much more momentum in recent years.
