I'm looking forward to slapping the bigger turbo on there, but I'll run you again either way with or without it... I think you'll be surprised.

But motor swap + nitrous + turbo.... hmm... we'll see
yea mine was stock then to just have turbo kit on it but its not stock anymore you know its amazing how people down hondas there r alot of slow hondas but then there are alot of fast ones also just like other cars most of the people that talk shit about them doesnt have anything under the hood of there car not to be pointing fingers incase anyone is takeing 0ffense

Stop posting this garbage you fucking idiot.

It's called punctuation. Why do ricers not use punctuation?

As far as tubo honda's go. The problem is alot of people leave out one part or another. Mostly the fuel managment or tuning. Those are really the keys to it all anybody can bolt on a kit and drive it. With all the bogs and hesitiations, but get it tuned and it will run like a stock turbo vechicle, but in most cases quicker.

Yours was stock? You had a motor swap with nitrous and a turbo kit. How is that stock? lol.. Like I told Juan last night, I still want to run you again. It's not a matter of shit talking because you've put a lot more money into your car than I have. I don't care if you have 800hp and put 800 cars on me.. There are too many people that will only race people who they are certain they can beat.. Personally, I think that's stupid. Where's the incentive to get out there and make it bigger, badder, and faster, if you don't run faster cars than you and lose every once in a while. I didn't say "I want to run you for some cash because my relatively stock GTI is capable of beating any turbo Honda" out there!" ...I don't expect to beat you. It's not about that. I want to run you before and after the turbo upgrade and we'll see what the end result is.

I think you'll be very surprised. You're underestimating--I, however, am not. I hope you get a good tune on your car so it can see its full potential. That's one thing most people don't seem to bother with. Glad you are.

BTW, I went looking at Z06's today. I've been thinking long and hard about it lately...
