    well there is only one way to find out. when i save up the money to get this project off the ground. ill post pictures and video of the tack at 10,000 rpms and the boost gauge at 45psi, or of a catasrophic fail as the heads blow off and the rods shoot through the pan, and my car burns to the ground.
