Hi, just joining in here because one of the guys from work happens to have a Turbo'd quad cab that runs something like low elevens and seems to me to have power bordering on breaking the laws of physics.
I've been talking with him and of course what do I want now? Massive stinking globs of power. By now though I'm probably driving him nuts with questions. (Ok, definitely. Surprised he has not murdered me.) So that brings me here.
First, I don't have a truck, but that's where the good, inexpensive, totally nutjob power seems to come from, and of course good pullouts aren't too hard to find. And if my co-worker stumbles across me on here he'll definitely tell you I'd be the kind of guy to go, "Turbo V8 golf cart? AWESOME! Does it have methanol injection and AWD?"
So that being said I'd like to take a late model V8 (the smaller displacement ones suit me just fine) and put it somewhere it doesn't belong, with a turbo. (You know, 500hp in an old lady's Buick or a clapped out 80's Camaro. Or maybe the small block in the Volvo wagon trick.)
Anyways, longest introduction ever I'm sure.
