New TSX, Tons of Power, But Does it Handle?

I need the opinion of TSX owners here as I am thinking of buying one to turbo. Firstly, how does this thing corner? I know its got great power from the V6, but can it turn? An Accord can take a 328I off the line, but then it can't make a turn.

Also, does anyone know any good information on dropping a T3/T4 onto one of these 3.2Ls?

Do you mean the TL or TSX? The TSX I think only comes with a 200hp 2.4L 4-banger right? I don't own one, but if the car hasn't improved over the 2004, I'd say the cornering sucks. I had one for a rental for about a week and there is supposedly vehicle cornering control, but the TSX I drove swayed around corners like it was riding on sponge.

I can see turboing it for more power, but stock suspension is not BMW'ish, if that's what you're striving for. IMHO, BMW's suck !!!
