No way, you have lower c/r, you could run a little higher boost then us VTEC guys.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

nothing wrong with driving an turbo with auto. there's no shame in that. my friend has a 94 supra TT with an auto tranny and he runs 12s. go for it![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

reading a couple other threads about the hks turbo and such, i found it'll cost roughly 3k for the kit it's self. but how much for all the other moding you'd have to do to get some serious boost of it? i don't make nearly enough to be saving for a turbo. right now i'm barley saving for a header.
