Are you going to have someone build the motor for you?

All Motor is usually more streetable. The word streetable is used very loosely now-a-days and is often abused.

If you go too big of a cam setup the car doesn't like idle and it'll make funny smells.

A boosted car has more shit that can break. Plus you have to keep up with them a little more than a all motor car.

If I were to build another car, I'd go all motor. For street able reasons.

(and my term of street able is. AC, PS if the car had it, the car doesn't vibrate. Won't smell. Is quiet. Etc. )

The cams are fine.
But, I have all 5 motor mount inserts....(prothane upper and rear, es torque mounts)

Everything in the world vibrates.

Things fall off my car.


Oh, the buddy club spec2 don't help.

Yeah but she is a girl and I am sure she doesn't drive it like most of the guys on here would.

Not saying you can't drive just saying that girls tend to have a little bit more self control.
