yes...

but bigger turbo = bigger rwhp #'s = lower 1/4 mile #'s

that is only true for the last part if you can get traction. traction is key.

Ask yourself is it worth the amount of money you'll put in for a second greater in a 1/4 mile time? Waste of $$$ IMO and you gotta get that hood. I'd rather put that money into an '08 or 335 even.

They have a bunch of good deals on my350 in the classified section. All types of kits being sold (Stillen,TN ST, Vortech) for around 3-4K, so tempting.

are we really gonna compare how much more money will be spent between buying a new car and spending 7k on mods to make it how i like it?
