Pump Gas

Let me re-phrase. Do you think he will RACE on 700hp, when he can have 1200 by using good gas? I dont.
No but we’re talking mostly about street car stuff right? 700 is lots of power and even if you make compromises to get there it’s still a lot of fun. And you’ll outrun almost anything you come up against. Ask me how I know.
I agree with you there, but where is the point where you're sacrificing power just to retain the pump gas title?
Everything we do is a sacrifice for power. If it wasn’t every N/A engine out there on the street would be 14:1 and on race fuel. With boost you just have to have some level of responsibility not to crank it up past what’s safe for your engine on the available octane. My big block could make lots more power if I ditched the cats, ran 118 octane, did all the things that make it less of a street vehicle. But I wanted to see what was possible on pump gas. So that where I’m at.
