Hey Matt very sarcastic guy...,

Don't get this wrong, but, just, in case, if you think i'm a redneck driving a domestic car... you are wrong.

i love sport cars, period, i don't care about if is a Mitsu or Ford. I just want keep open my options.

The chances to get $7000 for the stage 2XX of a turbo for my car (www.turbodrivenconcepts.com) are not good for now.

Because, besides the $2000 for install that thing, the basic problem is that i have to change almost all transmission, actually, ALL the transmission, clutch, carbon composite driveshaft, rear, brakes etc etc. Not talking about billet rods, pistons, a new crank. Total cost, around $15,000 or more. The new modular engines not are very easy to work in. Just to get my heads ported and polished, one shop is charging me $1500 for labor !!!

So, another option is buy a car that can handle a lot of power (like the Supra Turbo) and keep installing new mods little by little. Therefore, i asked how much can handle a Evo VII, is a lot cheaper and if is like the Sti, is a heck fun car to drive..!!

I just want to learn, I drove a Sti in Argentina about one year ago and that's it... remember there are not dumb questions... only dumb answers..

peace.
