        I would definately save up for a turbo. I wish I had 1500.00 to spend right now. Well, maybe its good I don't then because I would so totally spend it all real quick. I don't even know how Im going to save up for a turbo. Im going to have to save up a lot of money and lock it away somewheres.

            If you're askin me, Im gonna build it up slowly. I want to have a lot of show and some go until I get my turbo. Once I get it in, I hope to have a lotta show and finally some go!!

              turbos are mad expensive when you buy in kits. if you can find a way to get all the parts yourself, then you're better off just doing that.
              i'd think of going in the opposite direction. i want lots of go before i get lots of show.. but i'd love the "sleeper" aspect

                Turbo!!

                At this time, I don't really need a lot of HP per say, but definately later on I would like to add some zoom. Thats why I figure to go and make my ride look sweet and just cruise. Then add the turbo and extra HP later and surprise them all when my Pro gets up and goes. It'll be fun!!

                  My Accord buddy and I found that piecing a turbo can be just as expensive as buying a kit. And if you buy the compressors used ,ya really should buy a rebuild kit. I personally think that finding all the parts individually would just be a pain in the ass When I go F/I I'm gonna just buy a kit.
                  SLEEPER all the way. I don't even want my intercooler to be easily seen.

                    Haha, yeah! I think it would be fun to see the look on your opponent's face afterwards when you smoke em in a race. Just that first inital reaction when you pop the hood and show him/her that sweet sweet turbo!!

                        Who said anything about showing opponents under the hood?

                          ^^ ricers wouldn't know what it was anyways.. they'd just be all like "Whoa!! SHINY!!!!!"
                          note: ripper - you gotta let me know what the drop with the Teins is like.. looking to get some springs in a few weeks.

                            LOL. Its not the ricers I'm worried about. I wouldn't want the wrench monkeys to know that the bitch is boosted.

                            Yo, Freek, I'll let ya know how the Teins are. I plan on having a "after" shot taken for my sig so you will be able to atleast see the difference. Unfortunately, Its DAMN frigid out the past couple of weeks. Even in the garage its too cold. I'd like to get heat in that bitch someday. As soon as we atleast hit 40 ( now its hitting 11-20 degrees) Those springs are goin' in NO DOUBT!
