im thinking about taking off the turbo and puttin my teg back to stock. can someone hold my hand? i get sad just thinking about it. haha

how many of you went back to stock or all motor?

 

Go ride in a N/A car that is like yours then drive your car then I want you to say i want to go back ...I could never go back, boost is the only answer...

 

now why would you want to do that?

 

I won't hold your hand but I will hold your turbo and the other parts that go with it.

Theres a few ppl here who have had their turbo cars stolen and instead of starting another project they just bought an S2000.

 

I went back to stock and I friggen hate it. but I only did it to move on to bigger things, not to retire.

You bought a camaro too?!

 

ok.. maybe i wont "retire" in the world of turbos... but i'll probably not boost another honda/acura... unless i dont get a G35 or somethin. haha

i know i'll want to go back to boost.. but it just isnt as fun anymore. so much $$$...

just like DIREP, got bigger thangs to take care of.

what i really want it a nissan sylvia with a sr20det. the motor can handle a good amount of boost.

It will be difficult to drive something else after driving a turbo car... I just tried the Mazda Speed of my brother ... damn it is slow even if it is turbo loll

 

I almost bought an s2k instead of turbo'ing another gsr after my first got stolen.. but i only got to enjoy the GSR-T for 2 days and needed to see what it could really do, so i started all over

 

I second all your motions...i was a huge N/A guy for yrs, but my first boosted Civic has left me to venture into Supra's/SR's.....

 

Yeah, I had the displeasure of driving "N/A" for a day in my LS when my intercooler piping blew off one day. It's the worst feeling waiting for that turbo kick that never comes...

Wait did you want a response that would HELP ease you back to N/A status? oops

 

I've tried to go back to stock a couple of times, both times it wasn't long before I started collecting turbo parts again. It's like a god damn drug. You get used to your turbo, sell it and take it off, drive your car stock and think "no way, my car wasn't THIS slow stock was it?"

 

Turbo is the pipe, and boost is the crack. You <U>need</U> to smoke it.

 

After my first boosted honda was stolen i had an m3 but eventually i got back into turbo honda's..

i still do...I wanted another boosted car and turboing the m3 wasn't really an option..ive always had a thing for honda's..

 

reading this stuff is seriously torture
cant wait till everything is done with my car

Same here. The M3 just wasn't quite same when it came to all out acceleration. Everything was just too damn expensive. Dumped 6k into the car and it got me nowhere fast.

 

maybe i should rethink going back to stock.

but darn... dont ya just want to have peace of mind and not worry about cops, smog refs, and spending more money on the car?

if this was the case then life would be seriously boring..i'm already dying over here w/ out beer and cable, and now you want me to give up boost..never!

 

ha!, boost pain in the *** to keep the maintenance, but excellent benefits psth!!!

 

I've been turbo-less for about 7 months after being turbo'd for 2 years. I miss the boost but once I finish college I'll turbo'd again The good thing about being stock is that I can mash the gas all the time and I'll still be below the speed limit

 

I havn't had boost in over four months. I am still having withdrawal. Going tback to NA. My pocket book couldn't afford boostin.
