So you still realize the 400HP is fast, but you just want more?

unexpecting lane changes when you hit boost.
tire spins at 60+ mph
160 mph runs which get very uncontrollable.
the fact that everyone who gets in the car wants to go fast. thinking its a damn taxi.
gas mileage sucks.
Thats what I thought, which was why I was surprised when you said it "isn't shit". Well, now I know you're not a complete retard.

yes i realize it is faster than the normal cars rolling through town. but would i like more yes i would... but at the same time i wish i would have a truck and trailer for it to. maybe a daily driver i could put miles on also...

i mean it is shit in the sense of dangerous to use 400 hp in a semi light car. but just the sheer fact it is 400 hp isnt anything anymore. maybe a few years ago it would have been the shit.

and its not VW's in general i hate. its stuff that dosent serve a purpose that gets me.

i love anything that goes fast.. or excels in some form of something....
ie. straight line, turns, engineering etc.

shit im the guy that thinks porsche's look like vw bugs and whoever "engineered"/"designed" them need to be shot. a 4 yr old can draw up the porsche body style.... but thats just me..... haha but in the same instance they perform their asses off.... so i cant hate them to much...

Sure, if it was a FR set up car, not the FF POS that is being talked about in this thread, lol.

Its ok.

Now 250whp in a sub 1800 pound car is alot more better.

Jayson(my boy that had the party) knows nothing about cars. And he was like.. I like Mikes car. It pulls different ways, leaves black marks and makes cool noises.

I was like... now you see why I'm into it

Like 400whp FWD cars? Hahaha!
One day. One day.
If I got parts for 240s or Mustangs like I do for Hondas. I'd own one.

Plus I can't afford insurance.

And I like to go straight and it's easier to go straight in a FWD car

OHH KAYYY my ass.


i gotta know how much hp your pushing, shit better be more than 600 for me to be impressed at 30psi.

12v VRT put out 240 @ 6psi (t3t4 turbos), at 20 psi I think the dude was at like 480 or so, I've seen VR5s throw out more hp than turbo cars here, daily driven also.

heres one at 28psi
550hp, 505tq with a 3.0L gt40r @ 28psi

heres a thread with a couple of 12v turbo dynos
