Moving along. I am the proud owner of an '89 hatch the some moron painted an awful color of green that I call "Ninja Turtle Green". This is so I don't feel as self-conscious when I drive it, because slouching down in the seat so no one sees my face has been making my back hurt something awful. Oh, it has a B18A1 LS Teggy swap.

Some halfwit thought it was easier to promote me rather than address the problems my co-workers have with me (aka, **** up, move up) and I now have a fat wad of benjamins burning a hole in my pocket. Instead of blowing a little bit of that stack on a nitrous system that will immediately blow my engine, I want to bankrupt myself first by installing a turbo and then blowing the engine.

The main problem is that I don't know a blow-off valve from a wastegate, but all my friends tell me that PVC pipe keeps things cooler in the bay. Something tells me this isn't right, but I need to confirm this online first.

I'm too lazy to do any research and realize that both Greddy and Turbonetics are reliable turbo manufacturers, so I'm going to take the lazy way out, buy a "JDM" ebay kit, slap it on, forget about tuning - I mean really. Who needs tuning and engine management? It's not like I'm completely changing the operating parameters of motor by cramming down 4 times the amount of air into the motor, requiring more fuel, different timing, and so on. Who believes that **** anyway? Just a scam if you ask me. All those tuners probably belong to some tuner union who's main purpose is to scam the hard-earned dollars of the true street racers like you and me. C-O-N-spiracy.

But back to my Ebbay question. Can I purchase a universal kit off Ebay and just bolt it up to my 89 hatch without having to futz with anything? Universal means '89 Civic hatch, right?

Hugs and kisses in all your pink parts.

Jon.

I understand that my low post count may lead you to think that I do not know anything about research or turbos or anything else, but I simply do not have the time to look around the net for vendors who sell turbo kits. You can't expect me to actually walk in to a shop and talk to someone do you?

Seriously folks. I play back-up on all the CKY songs on Guitar Hero. I've even been invited to audition for a back-up spot in my neighbor's Rock Band, well, band. I live my life one riff at a time, and for those 2 seconds, I'm free. I want to get those new Les Paul stickers for my wireless guitar so I can't afford to drop $2K into my car. It only has 73,000 miles on it and those are all parking lot miles. It's well-known fact that every engine can handle 6 psi of boost without any engine management or tuning. Remember that tuning conspiracy I told you about?

Speedfoos, you hurt my feelings and I didn't like it. My momma always says that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all, so please don't say anything at all. You're not helpful Speedfoos. You're a mean, mean, angry mean man and I don't like you.

Truth be told, hip-hop is my life, BOI!
