Most of the cars with big numbers that every one likes to see spend all their time doing just that, making big numbers on a dyno in a shed. Any place else they are shit to drive. To borrow your phrase, woopy do.

Im sure its possible to make a very streetable big HP car thats not an auto

Personally mine for 588rwhp is extremely streetable in my opinion. I know its not huge power. But still carries a single plate clutch which helps with drive-ability. Im sure if it had a twin or triple plate clutch it would be a harder task to drive daily

Again its all personal preference

800hp is still 800hp when that beast wakes up it'd knock the earth off it's rotation, rajab I hate this "responsive" "street friendly" crap :rant:

Get yo own phrase straw man lol

For someone I know to be smart you do a great job of sounding retarded :P. In any other situation than a drag race a 800hp "beast" won't know which way a street friendly car went!

Sometimes i wonder how responsive you can an 800hp setup.

Like i think mine is responsive [in perspective] for 600hp. Full boost at 4500prm. I wonder if i concentrated on bringing that on earlier just how it would fair...

Hell should have just stroked it

Put it on NOS! ;)

500 to 600hp is probably the sweet spot. It's fast but can be reasonably tractable. Above that is when it becomes increasingly difficult

Thank you, it's a skill I've perfected. "Smart" people get judged where "dumb" people are left to their own little games :)

This is assuming there is another situation other than a drag race? :P

It also should take into account what other handling mods etc are in the car.

Like a front diff...

Yeah, 6466 sounds a little big scott, but i'll be interested in seeing what your final figures end up at. (yes, i know you're a way off, but i'm a way off changing my setup aswell, i'm just researching).

with these precision turbos response can be pretty damn good these days.

Stroked engine will always help and we are already seeing many cars being setup that way and delivering astonishing results (power and response and tones a torque)

Your only issue Scottie is traction but those MT 275's will help ;)

P.S. I'm a mountain boy :yes:

I really want to build a 2.8 and throw on some -5s. Would be an amazing drive!

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
