Meh, there really isn't a huge difference. You are doing whatever you need to do to boost power given whatever the power source is. If it's an engine... you can force in more air. If it's a battery... increase the voltage. Though instead of tuning cars we will be overclocking them. And instead of GTM vs. Stillen it will be Intel vs. AMD.

He also said a plutonium powered flux capacitor would be safe, and look what happened to Michael J Fox. Even in the movie, his daughter ends up looking like a tranny. I hope that f*cker gets struck by lightning in the future/past.

I'm pretty sure nothing in your pants should have anything to do with this thread.

Energy prices aren't going anywhere but up in the long run and it will get to the point where 99% of the people are priced out of having the option to drive a gas-powered car. Just think as the world switches to alternative fuels the availability of gasoline is going to drop. So even if you wanted to drive your "classic" around it would not be feasible day in and day out. Obviously this won't happen overnight, but 30 years from now the world is definitely going to look much, much different. One way or another we'll have to adapt.

I actually think the whole alternative fuel revolution (as in most people, >50%, in america will be driving them) will happen alot sooner than that (~10 years). Technology is moving so fast. Most people care more about price than anything else about a car. When gas prices go up more and more, alternative fueled cars will become the cheaper option.
