Yeah, me too. When I went to pick up my Zee after Aaron finished the 415, we went to the shop and he started it up. I stood behind the car and was just mesmerized with the sound. You know, the lopity-lope sound of good cams! After several minutes Aaron had to just shut it off. No telling how long I would have stood listening to it.
I've have no interest in NO2 and never owned a boosted car until now. Turbocharging is just so efficient and still leaves great manners. The pull of even more power than the 415 finally moved me to the dark side. Driving the prototype 95 LT1 with single turbo was so much fun. Can't wait to finish the remaining C4 systems and build my own. I think the 415 will be on a stand in the shop one of these days and a 372 low compression LT5 will take its place in the LPE Aerobody. The car just kinda has that turbo look about it.
