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!!!

QUOTE(Coomer @ Oct 4, 2005 - 4:49 AM) I dunno...I've driven a few turbocharged cars, and although they all would smoke my car, there's something magical about revving to 8,000 RPM and the accompanying high-RPM power and incredible throttle response. QUOTE(doGGy @ Oct 4, 2005 - 2:35 PM) you learn to respect NA speed and power much much more. im with them on this one... imo-turbo high power & maintenance |
