i am not a fan of boost on v8's ... i see and own and deal or...EXPERINCE the feeling of juice..and its amazing..

plus with being a ws6 .. u can buy that thin line pro nitrous kit that fits between the intake mani and the block..and make it like 90% hidden.. pretty cool to keep the engine bay clean..and not look like mine and have lines.. everywhere.

good luck .. there fun cars.

Boost>Nitrous any day of the week. but when cost is a issue, Nitrous is the more effective way to go.

Not a fan of these bathtubs, but that's a very nice et for the relative low amount of HP being put down. Some slicks and you are easily in the high 12's.

very true.. but to ME nitrous is just easier...easier to tune..easier to use... i mean i turned 16.. bought my gti vr6...had nitrous hooked up and tuned withing 24 hours of purchase... i just have used it more... but after 4 months of spray i di eventually go boosted... so i agree.. its jsut a personal preference on a drag car.. i like the spray.

this car is awsome. whoever made the statement above about not liking boosted v8s are you nuts?!?!? if you think a 4cyl turbo is cool why not an 8? its 10x more badass puts down crazy power and sounds meaner then just about any 4 cyl and most 6cyls. also i dont get why people hate on v8s period? theres no replacement for displacement look at all the bored/stroked eclipse's,supras,evos,etc. small blocks are reaching 427 and up cubic inchs,and big blocks are reaching well above 500ci.

this car is super sick. i love this body style and want to build one with a 60s 327 screamer with vette fuel injection and a 6-71 :) it would deff be diffrent

whats the plans for this car in the future
