I'm at work right now and my friend's been talking about turbocharging his little D16 Si. It's one of those 92-95 ones. Anyway, I always mess with him talking about rice this rice that. He was basically just for sho until today. Wow. I want a turbo now! It's a hell of an experience. Maybe it's because I didn't grow up with friends that have supercars and turbo cars, etc. I mean, the fastest I've been in any car was an old Porsche 944(145MPH), and I recently learned to drive manual. So this stuff is all amazing to me. So yeah, it's a D16(Beats me by 2-3 cars stock against the Celi.) Wow, that turbo is crazy. Everything was Greddy. That thing flies. It sounds like the green Eclipse from F&F when it arrives at the stadium. It pushes you back, it feels like someone's punching you in the stomache when you shift gears. And he's only boosting 4 lbs. The BOV was Greddy something and it sounds a lot like Doggy's old Celi(Sorry Romas, didn't mean to compare you to a Civic). Yours was still nicer! But yeah, I'm very excited. Wooo! Can't wait to get my turbo!!!

first turbo car i drove was my second car that i owned, 1990 mazda mx-6 gt. it was a fun little car. learned a lot about turbo charged motors also, i was pretty rough on the motor, not letting it cool down before turning it off, no turbo timer, starting it up and pushing it hard before letting it warm up... same kind of things my friend is doing to his 90 eclipse gsx. killing the motor. but when i swap my 3s it will be a completely different story. im going to baby her. dont get me wrong, i'll pull her hair every once in a while ;-) but im not going to beat on her like i would a red headed step child.
