bah everyone knows that chevy uses uncouth tactics such as mixing in gnomes and other magik creatures to produce motors that are insane as is.i hear they are also a large consumer of not only Ti but unobtanium, but still havent solved that profit loss bit yet.

oh for christ sake

you guys like making my life difficult dont you? lol

anyway RB20 vs SR20.

IN MY OPINION the RB20 is worthless in comparison. its just as old, makes the same amount of power has nearly the same long term potential but parts are more expensive, harder to get parts, and hard to get information. the only real reason i see people doing a RB20 is because its cheap, and because its a skyline engine y0! theres a reason its so cheap people. use your heads lol

RB26>RB25>SR20>RB20

disclaimer: thats my opinion, i dont care if you agree with me or not.
