Real world performance? Are you looking for a track/drag set up or are you looking for something that you can use on the street and track. Horsepower at very high RPM is not too desireable on the street. Low RPM torque and early HP in the poweband is the way to go. You get power and torque earlier with the Webber setup. PEAK HP and Torque were also higher in the Webber setup that Bernie shows. I don't see any advantage to 10 or 20 more HP at 7000RPM when the Webber setup produced many more than that much earlier in the curve. Looking at the powerband it is longer and flatter in the Webber setup. Tuning is a PAIN though I have been messing with mine for about 6 mos. Nothing is terrible but it always seems like you can make an improvement somewhere. I'm waiting till I can say I have my setup perfected. Hopefully it will be soon! Good luck and have fun with the build. Aron
