A guy out west did 480whp on stock bottom w/034efi, blew next time he started it up
Dontcha love dyno queens! Anyone claiming 400whp on stock internals does all their driving on rollers, makes me laugh when I see the #'s and claims, tick-tock. Also dragt racing (beleive or not) doesnt stress the bottom end nearly as much as tracking a car.

quarter mile times are vastly overrated, and not good indicators of useful power
You can easily shave a second if you drive well, a good tranny with right gears is also worth about a second. I know a car that had 400whp and only pulled a 12.6 because it was overly rich at the point it fell to on shifts and therefore stumbled, but on a track it was a monster. If you want great 1/4 mile times buy a Supra. Torsen cars are at a disadvantage on the strip IME.

but they do have the 19mm wrist pins? I know the AEB has the 20mm wrist pins
so they can be used with aftermarket rods. I don't think there are rod options that use the 19mm wrist pin right?
