    Well, maybe they do not go away, but as a human's perception of 
something, which was once high, turns into what their perception initially 
was, then it is essentially not there.  How many of us think...if I only had 
that, I'd be so much happier.  But them we get to that, and say the same 
thing over again!  10 hp here and there is going to wear off quickly, 
especially when your car is slower than so many other cars on the road.  For 
ME, I am done with spark plug wire and removing a muffler upgrades.  I WANT 
POWER!!  The only way I am going to get that realistically is with a turbo.  
Even now that I am working Eurospec, I could easily get my hands on some 
serious motors (such as 2.6 stroker motor with 11:1 compression, titanium 
44mm intake 35mm exhaust, and a beauty of a port and polish, but what will 
that get me, 160 hp at the most?  maybe 175 and that is a 6000 rpm.  No, I 
want a fat tourque curve and hp from 3000rpm on up.  Give it to me, I want 
it!!!
Ahmmm....sorry..whew.....
