How did we get here? I was just in aggreance that the S/C is a little weak down low but it still fun to play with. I also agree that just a s/c kit may not be the most original idea but soo what who cares! This post was about the shortcomings of the s/c kit not who has had the most unique or original engine builds. Again I'm not saying anything is wrong with the 3L swap, nor have I claimed to be the foremost authority on it either. I've read many of your post and marvel your knowlegde about the duratech and how to get the most out of it. Thanks for the stimulating conversation.

We are here because I read undertones in your previous post that gave me a different impression than the tone of this post. You know how you meant it, but I have only the writing to go on and what I picked up was that I didn't appreciate the originality of other people for modding.
It seems unimportant now.
I considered the S/C as an option too, even when the turbo results were out. But as I did more and more dyno comparisons and research I finally came to the conclusions I have expressed. If you read previous posts I don't bag on the S/C, it is just the #2 or #3 option for power adders on my list, with 3L mostly #2 and nitrous #4. As I said, no disrespect intended.
Oh well, as someone said we are all working toward the same end goal and that is something I do respect.
Anyway, keep up the good work.

Don't be so dramatic! I've never been out for to get you...at least not yet!
