You forgot the larger plenum, especially in the rear, which provides room for the full bellmouths on all the runners, which the Boss does not have. This is the most important thing.

Well I haven't drag raced my car since June of 2012, but I made some 180 MPH runs on an unprepared surface which other than being rougher than the typical highway is no different than what you're talking about. Lots of blown cars couldn't keep up with me in a full mile. Now be careful, remember what happened the last time you mouthed off about how you were going to beat everyone.

You want some street action do you? You REALLY sure that is what you want? What's the excuse going to be when you lose there?

I race cars, not engines. Horsepower is only a part of the big picture.

Well rested. Looks like everyone has calmed down

If you guys want to get hung up on dyno numbers no problem. My car has never seen a dyno and would probably make around 250 at the tire but it has run 10's at every major track in Texas and has done so in every season of the year.

I'll stick to datalogging and track testing under real world conditions to evaluate effectiveness of performance parts.

I agree with everything you are saying.

No one is disagreeing with that.
