Another quote you might find of use:
The article went on and on, but yes... It's really scientifically computed thru super computers and stuff like that. [I hope you're getting as much enjoyment out of this as I am]

Sorry for the noob question. I know nothing about FI.
You're saying with a supercharger on your car you can go up to 4500 rpm and not hit "boost". What do you mean by that?
You mean you can prevent your SC from kicking in at those high of RPM"S?
How?

Turbochargers are the same in the respect that they don't get into boost until you hit the throttle. I can go to 5000 rpm's also and not be in boost. Just clarifying due to some earlier posts. Also, Neff and I are just puting in these fake quotes. The joke is that nobody knows how long the engines will stay together in FI trim. If you want answers about that, the only person to go to is a fortune teller.

Thanks for the insight Jason! Where would we be without your input.

The car runs 11.6 1/4 with ET's.

this is in reference to MPG with an S/C - it's nice that it gets 27 mpg on a long trip where you are in cruise control the whole time, but what does s/c'd 6mt get in daily driving? (you know, when you're sitting in stop and go traffic on freeways for 1-1.5 hours a day, clutch gear gas brake clutch neutral, punch punch punch, gas gas gas). i appreciate it - i'm thinking of getting an s/c down the line.
