the only activity i enjoy during the winter is snowboarding...i like to get up to vermont whenever possible (stratton, mt snow, okemo, etc)
i try to avoid bars and drinking...i get enough of that during the summer.
other than that...i lay low, save cash for boating, and enjoy watching all the winter sports from the comfort of my couch.

Turbos ARE the future weather its boating or cars !
Nothing really compares although S/C's are getting better everyday too.
I have no Idea about white oak I'll have to call and find out whats up.
The lawsuits may have settled one way or the other. Been a long time.

totally depends on how you set it up.
Id figure $750 each for twins, starting price, $375 each for wastegates, $250 for a blow off valve
$1200 for a brent carb or a CSU.
Misc tubing (inlet) $200.00
Silcone connectors $200.00 water meth $250
If you go EFI Gen 7 or fast, figure a $3000 used with injectors and then $800+ for a good tune.
fuel system will most likely need to be upgraded to at least an aeromotive A1000 or better for carb and definately go weldon with fuel injection. also gonna need a boost referenced regulator.
Theres no power like turbo power though.
