if u want power kevin dont go NA

its more expensive and less power but more throttle response etc on track

id get turbo its usually more props to the society out there anyways as well as fun to drive

NA is but my bros supra made me a boost addict

i can only imagine how good sun feels driving the E55 and that R33izzle

People on the board gave me all kinds of crap over my 17"s. They had a lot of spokes, so I understand the look part, but they were light and I used them for street and track so I didn't care. I have Works 19's that added 3/10th to my drag race times when they are on if that gives anyone an idea what can happen. It's all about the rotational mass.

Dynapack is good for tuning since it is measuring power with loss only from the drivetrain with no wheels or tires to spin, giving a more accurate reading of what the engine is making which is why it will read higher.

Dynojets, or other types of Chassis Dynos measure from the wheels. This will give you a more accurate "real world" reading since, the tires and wheels you drive on are pushing the rollers. Remember, the larger the wheels or tire size, the more effort it will take to spin the dyno. Equating to lower, but more accurate on-road power figures.

Didn't bother me. I have been racing cars since I was 16 and I'm old now. I was autocrossing a 240SX in 91 before they were popular and had a SCCA comp lic in 1974. (Formula Vee).

I just laugh at half the stuff that is posted in the racing section. More ego than horespower over there.
