ORIGINAL: I G Joe sure alot of ricers use turbos to keep up with us. but when we go Forced they have to think and thats hard for them. *theres no replacement for displacement* Listen, in all honesty, why are you bashing "ricers" when it gets right down to it, you should have respect for anyone that can make there car go fast and do the work themselves.. Take a turbo'd honda civic for example.... Yes its a civic, and yes it might be rice... But it has a turbo, they never came with turbos, and you know the dude that owns that car did all the work himself.... it shouldent matter what you drive, if your a tuner and do all your own work, you should get respect lol im sorry but its not hard to slap a turbo on a car. hmm lets see you get the turbo and everything you need. goto a stand alone system hook it up to a computer and bam you can tune it that way. i dont think i know a ricer who could tune a carburated engine. sure yeah give him respect he did it himself, but ya gotta admitt why the hell would you slap a turbo on a 1.6L your basically wasting your money and your time. id say turbo's are meant for anything above the 2.0L mark because then you have enough engine to push the turbo. the only respectable rice out there is very expensive rice. Supra,Evo,STI, and so on you get my drift. So its not hard to "slap on" a turbo on a NA car, and get a full Haltech standalone system and have it tuned properly? As opposed to the all mighty carb? Hondas come with 1.8 Liters, most "sedan rice" cars that most people would think are ricers have 2.0 or bigger engines, and there are 1.8's running 20 psi and it working perfectly fine k...only one "honda" came with the 1.8 liter (integra)...most others are using a 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.2, or the 2.3 so, Joe, you're an idiot. it's not that hard to build a turbo honda. i'm runnin a crx Si with the stock D16, T3/T4 .50 trim @8psi, and 720cc injectors...no tuning what-so-ever. stock fuel regulator. no aftermarket computer, no AFC or anything. it doesn't take that much to get one goin so i'm not sure why you're even bringing up the "full Haltech standalone system". yeah, if you want your "1.8 at 20psi" to work you're gonna need a pretty badass tune (and a strong bottom end), but not many people do that. edit-and about the turbo being for engines above 2.0, that's just ignorant and you need to crawl out from the rock you're living under b/c there are plenty of insanely fast 1.5 and 1.6L turbo'd hondas. not to mention all the B18's runnin a turbo.
