there is no question that power adders are the easy way to go- even i have contemplated throwing a plate system on goldie. go from 650 to 800 hp with the push of a button, but before i do that, we'll need an aftermarket block! turbos are cool in that the basic combo can be so mild for the performance delivered. heck, you could run a hydraulic flat tappet cam and run 8s in the quarter. or 7s! for me, it's all about bang for the buck, and i don't have many bucks, so reliability takes precedent (better to race slowly than not race at all).
