While I dont think thats all of it for everyone it certainly does add a lot of emotion to the deal which is a lot of what theese cars are about.

And if we were all about function and speed we would all have c5s as 95% of the cars here have way more than the cost of a base c5 in parts and labor.

Also as nitro was saying a 1khp turbo car is VERY different than even a 600hp na or supercharged car. They love small overlap cams (read stock idle) and if you dont want the power its not there but when you do its there every time, kinda like having automatic nitrous.
