life isn't based on "probably's" ... get that car back on the road and let's see what it can do!

Plus those stage kits are gonna blow the **** out of those motors. The stage kit brings it up to 290 hp, the engineer I talked to at SEMA said the pistons are good for 320 hp. You think someone is going to get the stage kit without getting intake/exhaust too? No way. Pop goes the piston

Plus thats 290 to the crank, I'll have more than that to the wheels on pump gas

I'm getting HP Tuners very soon, so if you need a tune, I'd be happy to give you some hope of loosing by less than a bus length LOLOL

let me see if I can process what you just said

turbo > nitrous > supercharger

yeah I think thats it

"Streetable" is not equal to "street legal"

And there is no way in hell you are getting 30mpg with that. Okay, maybe with your foot barely resting on the gas doing 60mph on the freeway. But what happens when you want to get onto the freeway?

Gas mileage.

Precisely. Dumping gallons of fuel into the cylinders in a matter of seconds.

Once I'm up to the limit though, it would only take a few drops of gas to maintain 70 mph.
