and same goes for a 235....just a jb4 and it will spank a n20 thats fbo.....all depends on what youre looking for and how much pwer you want....imo the N55 is a much more well rounded proven platform and worth the extra money
Truthfully I'm not arguing the numbers produced by the n55, but am I the only one who finds it peculiar that the n20 doesn't make 300hp from factory?
