Did you get a first view of the engine bay?
If not, there's no real way to say what he had done. For all you know he could have been spraying a huge shot of nitrous. Just a thought.

So you learned a valueable lesson. Don't mess with turbo GSR's, or even modded GSR's for that matter.

^I'm guessing that's the last thing you heard as well?

j/k. For obvious reasons, lots of Honda/Acura go turbo. Sub 2-liter engines want to make power too.

To comment on his sticker: People who run nitrous and absolutely nothing else are in a different world all together. They can go pretty fast when they're ready to but constant bottle fills can be a drag.

Jesus The only cars I've actually seen sporting turbo'd K20 swaps have been a Mini and a Lotus. It's amazing that I've yet to see any civics/integras with the setup as yet. Probably because they know that GSR's and ITR can be had for way less.
