ok so here it is. im leaving work and one of my co-workers saw my car and started talking **** on my car without seeing me. heres what he said

him (to someone else) - Thats not VTEC! you cant turbo VTEC!

me- what did u say? (smiling)

him- you cant turbo vtec, its NA.

me- ok ill bet you $5000 it is vtec, and you can turbo it

him - well its not a type R

me - would you like to see the engine code or lug pattern? you can turbo vtec

him- why you getting all upset?

me- im not just trying to enlighten you, think before you talk about something you know nothing about.

 

Well I think maybe next time you should do a little more research before arguing w/ coworkers. He's right, you can't turbo an R but you can get NAWZ, two bottles in fact

 

damz y0! i didnt kno dat ****, i thawt u c0uld turB0 an R, so allz u canz do iz give it naWz? damz i bes do some research y0! VTEC fo lif3!

 

The less they know the better.

 

just kick your coworker's ***, lol j/p
just be careful he doesn't mess with your car now that you've bruised his ego

 

yeah i know, with the things that have happend in the past few days, i think im gonna go find a beater. it sucks i cant drive my car without getting hasseld

 

Yeah, that does suck.

No offense, but that's the real reason I stay far away from JDM conversions, aftermarket rims, obvious power mods, and anyone else who drives or talks about modified cars (unless I know the person).

[edit] you probably should let people who spout garbage continue in ignorance. Imagine someone acting like a dipfuck, like that guy, with the intention of learning more about all the parts he can steal from it...

Agreed.

 

not trying to start a flamin` war or anything but i don't really understand the point of turbo-ing a honda, esp. motors with vtec..please enlighten me if i`m wrong but doesn`t it go against the whole philosophy of honda`s high revving vtec motors? in a sense, it`s like downgrading your motor right? you have to lower the compression and such, and such..but if it floats your boat then that`s what matters..i just think vtec honda motors are n/a at its best!

 

Talk to the guys who make SERIOUS power with a turbo R.

This is most definitely the wrong thread to start this discussion.

Do some searching and you'll learn alot about turbo R's. Can be very impressive....

 

i see his point, thats not what the R was made for....but ive seen some sick ITR's turboed. im at stock internals pushin 5-7 psi and probably making around 250 whp which isnt bad. the car is meant for NA setups, but is awesome when modified and turboed.

 

I find this so true , is for the best !!
