Does anyone else get all happy when they find out about a boost build?

NA engine are nice. But, If I wanted a nice NA engine, I'd go by the displacment thing. I'd get a big ol AMERICAN BLOCK! YzGyz

Haha ha... Stillwell. I was being sarcastic. No way a 550whp z would lose to one under 400. That's just stupid. Unless his side of the track was lubed up more then Jenna Jameson and his tires were made of plastic.

I had a turbo kit on then went full bolt on breather then sc. I was embarrassed to try to take anyone on the street na. It felt like my car was dragging a pile of bricks behind it.

Honestly, id sell my z if I couldn't be boosted.

So, Yes I get happy when I hear about boost!

If you somehow beat a boosted Z at the strip, it was driven by an amputee. Or you're completely ignoring trap speed. And plenty of people here have lots of boosted miles on their car.

No, there's just a lot of us who really resent the new members who come in here with only one functioning brain cell. This used to be a place where we could discuss cool builds. You know, like this thread is about? And now we have all of these useless millennial types who have never been told their opinion isn't worth a wet fart, and they come into every thread and spew random nonsense. That's why this forum is going down the tubes.

Is racing for pink slips still a thing? If so, I'm in. To bad I wouldn't be able to sell the components off your na build.

A boost build is very interesting. You get to learn so much about the VQ engine when you read them. I'm planning to boost my Z in the distant future, so the more knowledge I can take now, the better it is.

I'll race for pinks. All stock, using a GTR. That way it's a close matchup.

I'll take that bet. Rolling start 50-120. Bring your GT-R and that pink slip.
