Once again you fail epically.

Stage 4 is often when bigger turbo chargers are used, not just increased boost, all of the other supporting mods are done or upgraded as needed.

Now it seems more than ever, you're only playing video games and thinking it's real.

So again, I ask, if I go down to my local performance shop, and ask for a "stage 4 turbocharger," what are they going to hand me?

Also, I never knew a turbocharger is different than a turbo. I hope none of this information sticks with me or I will become just as retarded as you are.

Keep up the hard work though, it pays off. I've priced out my build and motor, trans, suspension and rear end are already over 10k alone being I buy the parts brand new or strictly off Hawks. But like you said, done the right way, it will be worth it.

Uhhhhhh....not even close. I have seen COMPLETE turbo kits for hondas starting at around $900. Granted they aren't going to be the best quality, but you buy one of those, then change out just the turbo for a nice quality unit, and you have yourself a complete turbo kit for a honda for around $1700. That is cheap as hell for a turbo kit.



Hahaha. Took the words out of my mouth. How bout using real turbo lingo like millimeter, PSI, A/R, etc. You don't build a turbo car in stages unless you own an STI.

I'm the cheapest SOB you'd ever meet, but I spare no expense on my car. You don't know how much custom work I've had to do getting my car to where it is whereas the foxbody mustang guys have it all premade for them. You could build one of those things from the ground up with aftermarket parts. Just find it online and click to buy. Sucks owning a 3rd gen when you have nothing for aftermarket support.
