Phil,
Perhaps on a road car your comments would be valid, but on track when almost 100% of throttle time is spent with it either fully on or fully off, then you can never have too big .

let's hope he don't crash, that front end has nothing left in it strength wise, and there's some expensive parts bolted in the front there

i didn't say the shell, bellend. i said the front end.

that intercooler wouldn't survive a 10mph parking bump. my, cough, i mean a tow bar would go right through it.

if that's what it takes to get performance though, you have to make compromises don't you?

so you reckon a car with 15deg charge temps will give no better or maybe worse power than one at 40deg?
