[QUOTE="d_daffron, post: 726910, member: 4983"] Hahahahaha, now thats some funny stuff right there. I dont think theres anyone here debating the fact that forced induction can get you there and have a useable powerband too. The discussion was about all these guys claiming 1000+ N/A Hp, generally that kind of N/A Hp comes at the expense of making any usable torque below say 5,000rpm or so. Seems to me these guys are building 1,000 hp capable engines but then installing cams and supporting componets that are better suited to climbing hills on 43"+ tires so theyre not 1,000 hp engines at all. Theres no doubt that with enough money you can make as much HP as you want, but physics do limit whats possible N/A. If I'm wrong then we really need to get some details on these builds so we can all learn something. Anyone willing to post some cam specs on their 1,000+ hp N/A rockbouncer engine? [/QUOTE]
