Maybe they DID include the boss to restrict or hold down power output. Maybe without the boss we would get more efficient burn and better air flow which would lead to higher output. I'm not stating this is the reason just throwing out some plausible reasons of why since there are many things on the car that could have easily been done toget more power out of the car. --Z is back upand running! --Who ever said a house is going to be the biggest investment you'll ever make OBVIOUSLY never owned a Z!
