I thought about going turbos, but I think I prefer the instant torque of my maggie.

Hang on until the fest and I'll show you how fast the torque comes in...

Can't fault you for that. The PD's are instantaneous.

Then you get the mental cases...like Russ with PD and Nitrous...

Does that typically happen with turbos?

no, that was directed at Kyle, a couple of years ago when we were at the Laps for Charity, his A/C shut off during the day because of under hood heat... and I freely admit it was brutally hot that day, for people and for cars.... Later on when he was able to drive it at Highway speeds rather than idling around his A/C came back on...

It's still cooler than a turbo motor...cause we all know Turbo motors make lots of power and power is heat...
