my first ride in a boosted vehicle ;)
One of my friends (a girl named nicole), recently bought an automatic 13 sec turbo supra. Of course I had to go for a ride, so we found a safe place to go fast, and she got on it. I really wasnt sure what to expect, the revs started at like 2500 i think, and gradually reached 4000. Right when it hit 4000, bang! I could hear that thing spooling up like crazy, and I was in heaven! Crazy fast, i even messed my pants, like nothing I have ever felt before, makes me very jealous 
I was planning on goin n/a with my 94 gsr, but after many different rides in turbo cars (as well as a 10 sec supra), I think I wanna go f/i. My motor just hit 80k this week, and Im not plannin on runnin anymore than like 8.5 psi (5 psi daily). Anyone have any recommendations on setups (revhard, drag III, greddy). Also, with running at that boost, what other work should I do to prepare for the turbo? Thanks all!
