Turbo envy
I was driving by the dyno located at East Mall near sherway and I figured I'd stop in and find out what his rates were. While I was there this dude had his turbo charged Type R on the dyno. Man the sound of this car was pure sickness with the turbo spoolin and all. I talked to the owner of the car and he told me he had a Mitsubishi turbo running @ 8 lbs of boost and he was putting down something like 230 to the wheels. Man I want a turbo badly.

I friend of mine has a turbo off of a Talon sitting around and I think he wants 200 bucks or something but thats just one piece to the puzzle. Man this car shyte is expensive. Long gone are the days of having extra money, it seems like I work just for my car but I guess thats preety much the same for every enthusiest.
Just save up and you can get it.

Hey man.. where you there on Friday in the afternoon?
I was there too. I was the guy that was going into the Go Karting place next door with the black Civic and the red Eclipse.
I was sitting on the ground next to the blonde girl.

Yeah Neetronics is a good dyno place. The go karting next door is cool too. And yes you can drift those ***** like crazy.
You should see some of the cars Paul ( I think that's his name) does. His buddy has an Imprezza RS with almost 400hp.
