What's Better? - Drivesthebeast - 11-23-2006
Turbo this, S/C that...blah blah blah...sound like a bunch of kids having a debate like your dad's did when they were younger "my daddy's Chevy 350 will eat your daddy's 289 Ford!" "oh yeah, well the 350 and it's tranny are heavy motors, in a heavy arse car!" etc etc...
Boost Rules compared to stock, regardless of method of delivery.
Case Closed.

Nice that you added to the blah blah blah.
Do you have boost?
Case is really closed with Puppet and Anthony sitting on the case. :D
What's Better? - Drivesthebeast - 11-24-2006
NO, I don't have boost, hence my response. There are a LOT of STOCK cars that will kick my cars ass in acceleration and top speed now. My only saving grace is I can still outcorner/outhandle most of them.
I am saying a boosted car is better than a non-boosted one in terms of the "fun factor"...might be less reliable, but like any other modification, there is always gonna be sacriffice in one form or another.
Besides, the bitchfest had to stop...
lol

thats very interesting....how good is that stage 1 and stage 2 kit that they have on that site? and from ur experience do they worth that money?
What's Better? - kamilk69 - 12-14-2006
i have no idea about the kit, ive heard good things about it, and ive heard that he does great work on preludes and hondas,
this is the guy i bought my turbo from.
What's Better? - SmokeBCBuDZ - 12-14-2006
Nice man, like the video.
What's Better? - Flofocus - 12-14-2006
he's very well known around the ottawa area to....Im thinking of sending my turbo to him..He can do something (i think with the wheel) to make it a small 16g.
What's Better? - SmokeBCBuDZ - 12-14-2006
Ok it was just confused me because his price lists are in USD.
What's Better? - kamilk69 - 12-14-2006
