My thoughts exactly

All joking aside, thanks all for the input. Ive been around many 700-900hp boosted Street cars, i guess I just never really realized that wouldn't fly in an autocross setting. This IS a cruiser first, but definitely hopefully an autocrosser second.

I'm not saying it doesn't happen. It happens all the time, and everyone around here has a pretty good time doing it. Just look at the banter between Rob and DG about their FE vs SB2 numbers showdown. I've decided roll racing isn't for me, and as long as only the people who want to be involved in it are involved in it, then I don't really take up issue. We all have our interests and they all come across as equally nonsensical to people with different perspectives.

Like most of us here you're interested in building an old car that is more than a one trick pony. Building something like this is all about comprise, and if you share what is most important to you, we might better be able to pool our collective knowledge to figure out each part effects another so that you can choose which comprises you want to make.

Kid,

(hey, you said you were young)

String us along and lead us on your hunt for the golden egg all you want, but just be respectful in general. This is not one of those yelling and trash talking forums that are all over the place.

Matt is young and might be similar in age to you but notice how well behaved he is (most of the time) and respectful he is. Take a cue from him.

One things for sure, i know You dont know it yet, but you can bet I'm NOT stringing you along. Looking for some instant gratification? Maybe? Suffering from slightly unrealistic expectations? I'll even concede to a little of that. But I wouldn't even say hugely unrealistic. But just give me a little time, and you'll see the parts list and hopefully have more patience with me. I admit I may be a little brash, and not super knowledgeable in this 'field', but im very sharp. I will say this, I've been coming here since 05 and I've read it all, SERIOUSLY. And This isnt a one night stand either, I'm VERY determined. I'm asking a legitimate question here. Which form of boost is the most easily autocross-able concerning the major issues; heat, ease of drivability, etc... Forget the 1000hp mark. Thats just for fun. I merely want the combo itself to be CAPABLE of that. Surely We can do something that will make 800-1000 max boost and still be able to be tuned down to make a decent autocross car? For the record, I'm not trying to give the big boys a run for their money or anything. I just want to be able to compete. All that being said, I'm a longtime member of several car forums, and im not even saying its completely unfounded, but tell me this place isn't a bit big headed and clickish;)?
