Mooty: yes, 7/12 is HOD.
Yes, the turbo, S/C route looks so tempting. You only
need about 190-200 to get the same power to weight as the CS.
I also love that I can actually work on this car! I felt that there was nothing I could or should touch on the CS, except fiddling around with my video cameras and other gadgets, and doing the brakes. Now, I'm crawling all over this thing, getting my hands dirty and I love it.
By the way: One of the garages at TH has a Dynojet, and he's now familiar with how to do a CS. I dyno'd at 255hp/242tq a couple of weeks ago, late afternoon, about 90' out. He comp'd my pulls, since he screwed it up the first time. I think he's charging about 125? I can't remember the name of the garage, its on the back side, facing the skid pad. Ask for Kevin.
