Such motors are really only for the folks who view a $50, $60, $75 or $100,000 motor as an interesting hobby or whom are powertrain managers of million dollar GT1 teams

This is what makes the EVS super charger that MTI Racing in Georgia have put together so interesting.

For around $20K they transform the 427ci motor into a very capable track monster - and not just a "dyno and roll on queen".
