They can be if tuned correctly and set up with a multiport intake. The heads are weak, but bottom ends are really strong. I just wanted something that I could abuse everyday and not worrie about, and I work for GM so the vette motor was an easy choice.
Its' often been joked that Starions and Conquests make Corrados look reliable, lol.
On that note however, my daily Conquest gets flogged like a Fiesta in a Ken Block ad on the regular, and hasn't flinched at the 6,000 miles I've put on her since Christmas. All she needs is a turbo-to-manifold gasket to be happy and see full boost again. Well, that and another '88+ airdam to replace the one I claimed while snow-drifting a few weeks back.
BTW John, since you're not on SQC any more for obvious reasons, are you on 26Liter or Starquest.i-x forums? I'd like to keep up on your build, as well as drop ideas/plans/group-buys for CNC SQ parts to an, uh, "less-biased" SQ owner base.
