Turbo for the hell of it...

[jevsays]

Does anyone disagree with me when I say "I want turbo just to say I have turbo"?...


I mean, does anyone just want that adrenaline rush and power for kicks?





May be a dumb post but I would just like to see what everyone's opinions are...





I'd like to have a nice turboed daily driver and just punch it every once in a while...

I think thats kinda dumb. I know some douche bag that turbod his jetta just for a blow off valve, a friend of mine told me he had 1 psi of boost. Thats just lame.

Youd be better setting a goal, maybe 275-300.

 

[SleepingSol]

Yeah that's just stupid.

 

[Silver Bullet]

wow

 

[PICKLED]

Anybody that wants a turbo just to say they have turbo should be shot immediately.

 

[Shiznit]

I'm going turbo so people don't know what's under the hood until it's to late. Also because of the 99 out of 100 civics out there that look like F&F Rejects with no motor work.

to be honest, i think turbos have become the new bandwagon. i was boosted for the first time almost 3 years ago and there was hardly anyone with a turbo Honda in my area. now i drive around and see plenty on a daily basis. its becoming more of a status thing now more than anything...

3 years ago when i was boosted, there was NOBODY boosting. people only ran N/A.. up until today, still not much people here thats boosted besides evos and stis which come stock.. but no other cars, you actually have to go out and find them rather than see them on a daily.

I'd like to put a lil turbo thing on my civi but somethin's wrong with the engine.

It was diagnosed at a honda dealer for like 100$+, which was an all-day horror, and they told me not enough oil was being pushed into the vtec and not letting it engage.

Now when I run the car into that 6k rpm the damn check engine light comes on...

Bought an oil pump, which they said should do the trick, but have yet to install it...


Luckily a friend of mine works at a honda dealership and we were refunded the money but not my precious time and patience.

That's pretty much what my turbo car is for.

That and the N/A 2.4 4 cylinder sucks rhino ass in a 3400 lb fatass station wagon.

Nothing like the look on the 4.0 Mustang driver's face when he gets ripped by a PT Cruiser.

 

[toneekay]

i can do the install for you, if your in dallas area. i charge by FRH

 

[Bruckhoff_34]

Wow I have nothing else to say.

i am getting turbo soon just cause i want to have more power. i dont think anyone can deny that u also get a turbo so u can feel/look better than the guy next to you in the orange/green civic.

everything on a jdm civic is about status. no matter how hard people say it isnt.

i'm going turbo so that I can get laid.
