Turbo and 16V heads; 9A or PL?

[fahrvergnugen at cox.net (David Utley)]

Dan can on occasion be -abrasive-, and he is almost always informative, but
he is very rarely na?ve.  And yes, I believe Dan has built or helped build
at least 2 (I think 3) turbos.

I, on the other hand, have never built one.  But I know who has...  :-D

Naive?  You ever build a turbo 8V, Dan?  That's naive.

  OTOH, it's naive to say turn up the boost. There is a limit to the amount
of boost you can run with a given octane fuel.
  And "the usual power increasing tricks are suddenly moot"....??? Really?
Cams, P & P, free flow intake, free flow exhaust are all irrelevant? Just
turn up the boost??
  I'm sorry, but that's just too naive.
