Why do alot of people around here think that the 7AFE is weak and can't handle boost? I just want to know your view points on this? Do you think its cause it's and N/A engine? Is it because it comes from the factory with only 110 hp? is it beacuae you know someone that has boosted the engine and it has blown up? or any one of the many other reasons you might have?

I just really want to know what all you guys think, that say the 7AFE is weak and people shouldn't spen anymoney on it other then a intake or exhaust system..

that doesnt add up... where is the "thousands of dollars" in a custom exhast and intake, S-AFC, header, UD pulley, and DP? unless you payed for all the installs, theres no way that adds up to "thousands of dollars", unless you have more than you listed in your profile.

I've posted in the past about my first 6th gen...right? Anyways, that car had an accident and the motor blew. All of the heavy motor work (thousands of dollars) happened around late 2000-2001. I bought another ST (my current car) and swapped over as many parts as I could. My curent ST is a daily driver which only has old bolt-ons that I had in the past.

hmm... sorry i had never seen you talk about it. if you get some free time, could you PM me what your setup was? im just very interested in seeing what kind of a setup you were running... thanks!
