now to me that's sad, or maybe it's just me?
also i think he must have been racing civics if he was beating everyone
The gains made on the 2.0 Turbos are astonishing, I mean 5, 600HP. The few Turbo 3.8 6 are simply monsters. He did something wrong, or was an idiot, probably both. But out of the box the 2.0 Turbo is a FAR better platform for serious modding. The 3.8, stock, out of the box is the far better platform if youre not going FI.
