cubic inches or boost

Depends on the car and what you wanna do. Why boost if you don't need to it just adds more parts to break.

i voted for boost too. I have a modded 1.8 and its alot of fun

my friend has a lt1 355 with a blower and 15 psi though..can't go wrong there! sick power and it just keeps pulling all the way to redline.

Amen to that. Things are too friggin' complicated already. You screwoffs just looking for trouble, or what?
 
Twin turboed V8 please 😀

It's gotta have a nice sound with lots of low end torque and some boost to add excitement to all of it!

my turbo Z keeps me happy 🙂
 
if you want real power cubic inches is the way to go i love our chevelle with a 502 ci. big block. will kick the butt of anything. with out a turbo or nitrous or any of that crap. just have to build it right.
 
They are both essentially the same. You add horsepower by pumping more air into an engine. One way to accomplish this is with more cubic inches.

Another is with boost. Which is essentially just making the engine work like it's a larger cubic inch engine.

But I vote both.
