I've been driving an 1998 M3 Roadster for the past week, have rented it for 1 - 2 months. I am truely amazed by this convertible!!! TOO much torque! too much power for a small car, fish tails easily.

Im sorry I ever drove it cuz its tempting me away from completing my turbo project Please slap some sense into me. I know the integra turboed will never be anything close to this. My friend says just sell everything and save up for a good car.

 

Yes it will. I just boosted my car, and there is no feeling like it. Just a big rush of power at 3500 rpm. Only one problem tho. I keep wanting to turn the boost up.

 

uhhh M3 roadsters are not even very fast. A turbointegra done right will be way faster. you just won't be able to fishtail. Tell ur friend to pay ur bills and get u a "good car" otherwise tell him to suck it.

Well said !!

 

hehe, good Im back now! just needed some encouragement. back to endless hours of readin on HT

 

yeah I had gone thro the same dilema myself. First it was a S2000 that I test drove, then it was an E46 M3. And Im still back at the FI forum. Going turbo on my Teg is faster, cheaper, cooler than any stock car. Heres to going turbo

 

m3 insurance i believe will be higher
also repairs and maintenence costs..
also think about the faces of people when you blow past them in a teg

 

think about it..I have spent around 18g's including the car and I have around 400whp, 11sec car..Good luck finding a car with that much power for that cheap...I mean new of course..turbo dsms are cheaper, but less reliable..

 

I could beat that shape M3 upto 100mph when my car only had pistons, cams & exhaust.

My buddy used to pick up a lot more babes in it though. I don't understand it, but the girls seem to go for the Bimmers for some reason......

 

&lt;----Best of both worlds

 

I was hanging with a Dinan M3 not too long ago at 5 PSI....I really was wishing I had already tuned for 12 PSI so I could have eaten his lunch. I love the looks on the faces of people with expensive cars while you're passing them in a Jap car.

Lots of pseudo wealthy people around here and I was always getting into little races with Bimmer/Mercedies driving soccer moms that were trying to cut me off to get to whatever overpriced store they were headed to. They just couldn't understand why their midrange euro car couldn't pass my Civic

I can never decide who is funner to beat...people with V8s and such that they have exhausts and whatnot installed on...or people that are car idiots who think that because their car cost 40K+ that it should be fast.
