Default TURBO KIT IN THE RAIN FOR DAILY DRIVER???

I got a GSR in my EK Civic hatch. I want more power, but this car is my daily driver. Would I damage my engine or the turbo kit if i drove it in the rain??

Yeah your intercooler is going to suck up water.
Thats why factory cars don't come turbocharged.
not to mention your intercooler would rust.
turbo honda's are different then turbo dsm's, audi's,vdubs,etc....they are to be driven on sunny days only, and you cant wash them ever or you'll ruin them.
sometimes you need to think about the question your about to ask


Sorry but I feel like being an ***.
