Are you talking about oil changes, air filters, and spark plugs? Cause those ain't going to save a bottom end rotating assembly when you snap the throttle on a 1175hp intake charge. I"m not trying to start a pising match, but after market tuning on the HP range your are talking about is for those who can afford to throw away $20k. I guess the question is how you define "throw away" in these circumstances. For most people it would be a risk decision. For me it definately is. I feel that the kind of after market tuning you are talking about is for folks how afford build, play with, and replace $20k out of pocket. I can't, which is exactly why I want a factory SC'ed car. 645HP is more than enough for me. I'll be just fine with the 556hp in the LSA, if they go that route.
