[QUOTE="Voltwings, post: 13642452, member: 155561"] Yes, i agree those things should be done, im well aware of taking car of a manual transmission. As far as making power is concerened, a turbo car can be shifting at sub 7000 rpms and still be making as much if not more power than an NA car winding it out to 8k... The gears arent breaking, the transmission is strong, its the synchros frying causing lock out correct? So, the more power you can make at lower rpms the better (obviously within reason for stock block and traction sake), which is why boost is appealing. However, as i mentioned, ive built and tuned a hand full boosted cars (other plaforms mind you) and no matter how good a kit is they all have their headaches. Im sure each of us is well aware of the various drawbacks each form of FI has, Which is why i really, really, really, am wanting a badass NA build, but I just really cant justify it at this point. Not calling smoke a liar, but maybe if we start seeing some more data behind his numbers it could seem a lot more appealing. I'm all for having a discussion as people can shed light from different angles and opinions, but i will not argue with you, nor am i going to willingly grenade my transmission for the sake of NA horsepower...
