No, a turbo Honda is a toy is how it works.

My beater is a 290K mile 1989 DX that I got lightly hit in the front end for free. I beat the bumper cover and bumper support out with a hammer, put a freebie lightly dented up wrong color hood on it which I later replaced with a freebie dented up right color hood, and outright told a friend he was giving me the radiator out of a perfectly good car he hadn't driven in two weeks. I dropped $38 in AC belt, o-rings, and R-134a to fix the AC. 70K later I'm still beating along in it, and have less than $200 in it, and by the time I have as much money in it as I have in one of the turbos sitting in my closet it should be 350K+.

Take it from an old man, stop ------- around and set things up so you can enjoy a turbocharged toy with no stress and no regrets.
