Re: turboing a 4

Why would it be pointless?

The point of a turbocharger is to make more power. Adding it to a four cylinder will make more power, therefore fulfilling it's purpose. Can you post a link to that website.

Re: turboing a 4

Might wanna call Dodge, Nissan, Mitsubishi, and a damned good number of other car manufacturers and give them a heads up that their cars are pointless...

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.

i remember i heard it somewhere here. it could take long because the argument has been going on since 2003. it started off as people agreeing that they all hate 2f2f then it changed into a whole domestic vs import argument
