They act like the cars just had intake, exhaust, cam, and ran f-ing low 12's... riiiiiiiight.
The NIC is junk, it's a cam meant to give everyone what they want, which is lope. Nobody wants a functional cam, they want a cam that sounds mean. 90% of the nic cars run like crap, and 2-3 ran low 12's non i/c'd. There's plenty of xp and s1x cars that did the same thing, and i bet they get much better gas mileage. The NIC would be cool on a 10.2-10.5:1 compression build with way more lift (so it would have to be a custom grind) on some s3-s4 heads, E85, and a Gen V. That would be a mean sounding and well functioning car.
