I see where you both are coming from (Kaotik and Blink). I really think it would be in most peoples own opinion, but if you start out with something that has its own power and reliablility it would make sense. Unlike to beef up a 100k mile v6 with this and that and have it break. That would kinda suck. But right now I really like my v6 cause just like blink said gas millage, and is kinda fun trying to match/keep up with v8's. If I had the money I would Definatly go Kaotiks rought of starting witha more powerful platform and be able annihalate other stock v8's ( like vettes, GTO's and RICERS). BUT thats just IMO.
