[QUOTE="kevinp, post: 11258530, member: 106826"] You arent the only one, I came off an 8 second procharged LS1 F-body street car, and while it was fun (and expensive) I just wanted a 10 second car I could drive every day and remove/change nothing, except for rear tires, to run 10s. I do have a boost gauge though in a Roush vent pod, but you really dont need it. But it is absolutely zero maintenance and gets stock fuel mileage, plus it feels like you have a 500cid big block under the hood. I've owned and built a lot of race/street cars in the last 30 years and no doubt this has been the easiest 10 second car I ever built that isnt a stripped out tin can. I took the family in it to Chicago last summer, was 95-100* every day and 1600 miles total and I never even thought twice about it. I drive it every day unless its a monsoon or snowing (I hate washing cars and salt) and after nearly a year I still look forward to driving it which says a lot. Only thing with these is the throttle is a little touchy, takes a little getting used to, might make snow and ice driving a little tough but the traction control does its job well on these. Other than that its so reliable its almost boring, except for changing the oil or swapping a pulley/tune (10 minutes if that), I havent touched anything in 7000 miles with the blower on it. [/QUOTE]
