[QUOTE="mdoan, post: 15990851, member: 44126"] Just trying to protect the engine w/o gutting it. Stock throttle response is a bit underwhelming for starters, but more to the point, whether a car ‘drives like stock’ tells me nothing about its piston life, what the power/torque curves look like, what the engine was engineered to handle long-term, or if any given supercharger is over- or under-pullied (and thus falling way short of the torque curve that made us fall in love with these things). Let me try to simplify. Can a stock motor with VMP Gen 2, 2.4” pulley, 148mm CAI, 67mm TB, and basic fuel supporting mods be tuned for ~580-600RWHP, typically very low for these mods, and still respond to throttle inputs like it has “the right parts?” [/QUOTE]
