And he was having a hard time making the power he wanted n/a. And if boosting, may as well just go BP for autox use.


He probably did mention oiling issues at some point, though. I remember he was asking around almost a year ago about spinning a KL to 9000rpms, and yes, at that point, oiling issues do pop up.
