Drunk again or what? I hate your attitude about half the time. Find a better site and go hang out there, instead of trolling here?

I totally agree.

And Shamu how soon we forget you too where FI. You going to call me out have the balls to say my name. It's not your car. Don't worry about it. I have the money to test the limits and suffer the aftermath as you do to with some of your bogus upgrades. You've been suspended here once I guess you don't learn? Your attitudes does suck! You have no respect for anyone here. IMO it seems as your car and the way you do things is so superior.

I still laugh thinking about him telling BJ how to drive Laguna only to have BJ thrash Shamu's lap time... despite having a heavier non-FI'd car. At the end of the day Shamu is a lot of hot air, big opinions, but no delivery. Best to let him troll all by his lonesome.

Uhhhhh my Laguna lap time was in full interior, street legal, stock motor 3512 lb car/ driver with A6s on stock wheels at a 90 db track day with my stock muffler. Was fuel starving on T4 on that fast lap too. Hope a full on race car in a race going 10/10 ths smashed my lap time?

And clarification I didn't tell BJ how to drive I just indicated Laguna was a power course and that I thought he'd have a challenge with power cars. He did very well regardless but fact stands its a course that puts premium on HP and brakes.

Believe what you like. Sorry that I don't share your opinion and speak my mind.

I have lots of respect for people like Travis and others here just not few talking heads that seem to dominate many of threads here. My mild street legal supercharger install was truly stop gap until I had the 370z built into race car. I i did a couple laps on track and it was clear to me forced induction was a loser for a long term track car. Now that I'm building race car there's no way in hell I'd go FI with stock internal motor? I'm looking at NA 4.0 stroker build with dry sump. I don't need to spend $10k on turbo kit install to know it isn't well advised for a long term track car. But hey you have money to burn and more power to you! You'll have a cool ticking time bomb and I'm sure you will have a ...."blast"! I don't have money to waste and majority of work I have done on car is still there - not a lot of experimenting for me as I'm pretty conservative with my money. Sorry but I'm a born skeptic. And sorry if I rub some suspect characters here wrong way. I wont stop expressing my honest opinions. If you don't like what I post there is a simple solution just check ignore button.

^ thanks man... back at you - good contributions and ppl need to relax getting horns locked b/c someone states an opinion... eg I have an FI with stock internals and no big deal if Shamu doesn't think that's the path (but **** does he know? - j/k )
