Not after they're done!



Curious why the compound turbo setup? Aren't there plenty of streetable s400-frame options for 990?

In my world, aftermarket rods are a requirement above 800.
I only said the rods for the guys who may potentially read this in the future. Too many guys call me thinking they need 1200hp worth of air for their 12v rod engine.

Yes and no on the s400s. A lot more guys put large S400s on and say they make 1000hp because somebody else with an entirely different build did it than actually do it. In my opinion at this power level money can't be an issue. Obviously unnecessary money doesn't need to be spent but I prefer compounds at that power level. If it were strictly for competition then I can see a single but prefer compounds.
