#1 - trubo kit... you're right, it could be expensive. Probably burn up your auto tranny in a couple days also.

#2 - 04 eclipse... Still slow, and now you've got a huge car payment.

#3 - buy turbo car.... 99% of the people on this board are going to tell you to do this. Unless you really enjoy doing something that few have done, this is the only way to go. Heck, I've got a 92 Tsi AWD that is for sale that would be a perfect starter car for ya. 6-bolt bulletproof motor, and a 4-bolt bulletproof rear end. Fresh tranny, kill hondas (and a lot of other cars) all day long. biggthumpup.gif

Tires and wheels are in good shape. Body is very straight, no rust at all. Car is 100% stock.

I understand it, but it's getting a little funny to see every thread turn into a for sale thread by our local parts car traders. Maybe one main thread in the 'For Sale' section for those with items for sale would be cleaner. Then as threads like this come up you guys can PM them behind the scenes. Sound good?

BTW - I agree. If you want to race there is only one semi-afordable DSM option... #3
