You are terribly uneducated and I'm not even going to attempt to argue your "points"

I just felt it my responsibility as a person who knows a little about how cars work to make sure a person coming into this thread looking for information was not mislead by your clearly false interpretations.

My other concern was about the amount of boost that is being made to make the 260 hp. Couldnt they have got a better turbo with less boost to make the same hp?

yes but then it takes longer to spool and you dont get the 260ft/lb torque at low rpm.

But dont they have it programmed so you dont get all the hp/torque in the first 2 gears anyway? What would be the difference?

Actually...no..I won't. I've had an 2.2L and a 2.0L...I won't feel like a 2.2L.

See, I knew this would happen, discord. SOME 2.2L's will think they are 'getting back' at the ss/sc's...guess what dude, you're going to be getting EVEN MORE ****. From both sc owners and tc's. You're still at the bottom of the pile.

I enjoy my ss/sc more than the tc. I don't care if tis more 'powerful'. I like having a SC'ed 4 banger.

Enjoy your SC. Be proud of it. Its fast, so no worries,a nd its what you wanted.

yeah, i'm not scared of those SS/TC's, i feel confidently modded, just put a little money in your S/C car and you'll be able to hang with them or probably beat them. I can't wait til they're out to see what they can really do though.

The new caliber SRT-4 wasn't much of a challenge for my car and i was still spinning all through first gear and part through second. Maybe if those turboed fwds are modded then i'll start shivering in my boots (i'm believing they don't have problems with wheel hop which is the only thing that gets me).

Why is everyone so worried in the first place? It's not like the LNF has a 20G turbo.
