Well I completely agree with you. I turboed the single cam engines. Blew up 4 of them before I said, I had enough and decided to build something right lol. It was the best move I could have made.

the honda was fun, i wouldnt say you put a LOT of money into it. what did it have
b16, header, exhaust, intake, some kind of intake manifold

it was fun, reliable, just not 'fast'

i agree with most of what you've said in this thread edmel89, but please don't come off as the english / grammatical expert until you go back and edit the posts you've made previously in this thread........
