Default Pround new owner

I now know what it feels like to own a real sports car! I have always been driving accord vtec's, doing stuff like CAI, exhaust, and suspension. I want to get into modding more seriously and wanted a good car to start with. Well I have definitely done my research. Ended up with the 04 rio yellow pearl, and got a good deal. Anyway I have been reading this forum and I am looking for information on turbo's, boost, and what is a good match for this car. Kinda new to turbo's and can only find peices of information on this forum. Does anyone have any good links or information from experience to share with me?

Might want to get used to it before you boost it.

Thank You ALL! I definitely need to get used to her. Last night shifting into second i got the rearend to break lose a bit and I was like holy SH%# this is NOT my accord.

PS - Launching is just revving up to a certain rpm, holding it there, then taking off from the line right?

lol he's learning to drive on an S2000.

Rofl serious suggestion. Go buy a Miata, beat on it, practice on it, perfect on it. THEN get in the S. You don't want to screw around with new things you have no idea about on this car. If you need to ask what a launch is, I'd hate to see what you know about racing at all.
