Re: Check this out!!!

woo that looks sweet! But i would be extremely afraid to bottom out if all that was by the rear axle :O Imagine, in a lowered civic, going on a speedbump, if you scrape the turbo is going to rip apart. And i don't like it being so close to the tires either, rocks etc would fly up and hit it.

But the idea in itself looks good, need to actually see it in use for a few months before i make a decision on whether or not it's worth it - or if it's better to just go with the usual turbo kit setup

Re: Check this out!!!

If you watch the trans-am video on the highway, it sure don't seem to lag. It's pretty much a turbo system, just relocating it. I wouldn't spend 4g's on it though.

Re: Check this out!!!

dude what the fuck are you talking about, that T/A has huge amounts of lag, you can hear and see it, think how much worse a little 4 cylinder will be,

not to mention how shitty that system sounds...
