So much for taking a nap. The older I get, the more I hate telephones.

Just because you can go to 450HP doesn't mean you have to. A system with less boost will be more reliable, cheaper, and more "streetable" (eg, a more street-friendly clutch can be used). How many ponies do you really need in a hot-rod grocery-getter?

I wouldn't be at all surprised if a few intake/exhaust mods, plus a tune, wouldn't put a s**t-eating grin on your face without a lot of the expense, headaches, and reliability issues of FI. YMMV
