I mean, I get what he is saying, but it's a little bit exaggerated. It's not like you just get to slap a turbo kit in a gen 2 as it sits and roll out and run 8s. Stock converter ain't gunna cut it. You're gunna need some suspension. You're gunna need a drag pack. You're gunna need pro-tuning. And that's assuming you're installing and doing all the work yourself, which 95% of people aren't doing.

Great results with sleeved blocks!

What is the record for a stock-sleeve factory block?
I’m sure if you google you will find it, but off the top of my head I know midnight performance has been high 7’s around 175mph on a completely unopened motor, that was over 3 years ago though I’m sure someone else has pushed further
