Get the SL and save up in case you decide you want the VR4 later on, thats what I did.

Re: Supercharge or Turbocharge

I sorta want to buy a VR4 just to make it RWD. AWD is great and all but RWD is just awesome.

Re: Supercharge or Turbocharge

Since when am I the king? Is that what yogs' thing is about? Also I can see how one would think that RWD is awsome since it can be more fun but AWD is just so much better for performance.

Maybe, if there was a variable center differential where you could adjust where the power went... That would be awesome. RWD still rox your socks.

His custom spify global mod title says "its good to be the king" (I get the reference just thought it was funny).

Re: Supercharge or Turbocharge

RWD is better for most things racing oriented, however most people dont own a race car, they own production cars, where AWD is "better". They both have their pro's and con's. AWD is often negated by a RWD putting on drag slicks.

Re: Supercharge or Turbocharge
