"All i ask for is 700 rwhp on a stock block to be reliable and beaten on a daily basis"

Something doesnt add up here. Am I the only one seeing it? Or the only one not knowing about 700rwhp stock block cars driving reliable for say, 3 years?

You cant keep doing this to yourself. Especially not if you're doing it on borrowed money (just my personal opinion). Why dont you just settle for reliability and call it a day at a nice solid 550-600 hp?

^comes from a good heart - I just want you to enjoy the car and not worry all the time about stuff breaking and pouring more money into it

I don't know anybody that is doing 700whp on a stock block as a dd. Mine ran for five years between 500 and 600whp. I track it the last three years of its life. If you run at 700whp on a stock block you will keep on getting what you keep getting.

He's not going to get to 700whp. Probably mid 600's but the torque will be below 500ft.lbs and it's a sc'd set up so the power isn't going to hit hard like a turbo car so the motor should be fine. It's his auto trans that will probably cause him problems.

He could do like I did and install a wastegate and ebc. Then he can run it at low boost as a daily and only use high boost when the need arises.
