damnit dude, you need to just stay home. First of all, polishing your intake side will only hender fuel atomization by making the atomized fuel stick the the port walls and turn into droplets and that will decrease your power. Genious. Secondly, the ZC is "better" for turbos because of the rod to stroke ratio. That is also how the ZC creates better torque. Better torque=more airflow lower in the RPM range which in turn will spool a turbo quicker. Please, just shut up already!!
OWNED!!! AGAIN!!!!!

Oh yeh what....10 lbs? Who cares about the engine weights. That doesn't really matter unless ur talkin about vehicle weights then thats a different story.
