    3.6"...knock is WAY easier to be had on a GenV car...a 3.4" on a GenV is cam territory...or you could go with a 3.4" and hit it with E85 or Methanol Injection...there are always ways to get around knock.

    Ok. I'm thinking maybe Intercooler. E85 is about nonexistent around here. Methanol isn't going to be practical, unless I only went WOT at the track. I'm either going with a 3.6 or a 3.4" and more mods than I planned. Maybe I'll just get the wife a car lol.
