Ok, so I have a problem. I've been introduced to the world of turbocharging and I love it.
I just drove my friends 3000GT VR-4 with Twin Turbos, AWD, active aero, etc. on the 4th of July at a little party we had. He has a 3" downpipe, exhaust, intake, and a boost gauge on the A-pillar. I can't even begin to explain how much I enjoyed all that power....listening to the turbos spool up above 3k RPM's was so beautuful, and it thrusted foward with exactly the power I've always dreamed of in a car. Just beautuful, smooth, heart-pounding acceleration with no complants or hesitation.  So this is where I confess- I need to have boost and I need it now because I'm addicted. Unfortunately, I've decided that I dont have an interest in turboing my Celica, because I want something that comes factory with turbo for reliability and the ability to get it fixed by a shop, and resale value sake. So can anybody else relate to my situation? Also tell me what turboed cars you have driven and like most, because I think I'm going to be doing some research to find what will satiate my hunger for boost.

Oh wrong room? I'll be down the hall. Boost is a close second tho. -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
