I know that's obvious. I was asking a simple question though..."Is there any mechanism besides the engine itself that's going to aid in spooling the turbo?". I don't know how many more ways I can ask the question without someone thinking there was some hidden agenda behind it.

Todd... maybe you should bolt that 4294R to a log manifold!
Didn't imply they were restricted either. He stated they were built to function, I just simply asked if he flow tested them...good god.Power...well, you know how I feel about dyno numbers. I'm waiting for the cars to hit the 1/4 mile to show how well the kits perform. Just waiting for some to post up.
Man....I swear, something in the water around here or something...a LOT of yall get your panties in a bunch just because I direct a question, or question something...damn.

well...it all depends on how good the driver is.
I think what we should do is, after every kit is built, we should fly Travis down and have HIM run it on the 1/4 mile so that the driver variable is the same! What do ya'll think?

Trav and I have a pretty good banter going back and forth. We dont' always agree on everything, but I don't think either of us has ever said/done anything to really ____ off/offend the other.

Well....I admit I am a little evil at times over the net, but only when I think something is stupid. Then I play it just right so people will back themselves up into a corner and break down in mental frustration.. (in person not that way unless you ____ me off), but I am honestly being genuine in my questions this go around. No lie.
If I smell bull **** though, I'm going to call you out on it, chew you up, and then spit you back out...

Oh For Sure! Me and Meaty have to much in common to ever really get on each others bad side.
-both family men
-both generally have a good grasp on the real issues and see through the fake ****
-and now both are ex-Scikotic club members....
