When i first started reading this board about a year a half ago, when i found out i couldnt put a gst egine in my car, (hehe) I found out that turbo kits are available for our cars. Back then it was such an unobtainable thing....but now i harness this god-like power bwaahahaha!!! Really boost is good. im only running 5 pounds not intercooled, but man it feels fast after driving a 92 hp 1.8l eclipse all winter. Everytime i drive now i giggle like a school girl. Also, external wastegates are loud, awesome things. go buy a turbo kit if you dont have one.

Congrats man, I too am waiting very patiently for my kit (comes in 2 weeks, come on Howell hurry up). 2 long years I anguished in pain, 2 long years I get my ass handed down to me left and right, 2 long years of being slow. Financially it was very unobtainable for me, but after a couple of years of sacrifice, I'll soon join the ranks as one of the turbo'd 420A's in this site very very soon. Good things come to those who wait, I guess. Yes.....BOOST IS GOOD....and all the headaches that comes with it!!!!
P.S. no matter what you got, there will always be someone faster, keep that in mind, but at least you'll spank some serious Hondas out there.

I ordered mine exactly a month ago. Yes Howell please hurry up. Get the turbo home before I do. For those of you who plan to go turbo. I spent 4 thousand dollars. HRC stage 1 with custom stage 2 and everything else to make it safe and faster.

Im sure the Stage 3-5 people are when there not beraking axles and stuff. W/ Stage 2 I dont think you can run better then high maybe mid 13's on slicks at 10 psi -Dave
