yeah but it's also good as an extra precaution, like you lock your doors, but you still get and alarm or the club. It's just to be safe.

 

Beat it like Juan Veldez's pack mule!

 

No 5th gear driving

So when I hop on the highway for an hour or two I can't cruise in 5th gear?!

 

i still don't get tha whole no 5th gear driving ----

 

turbo timers are retarded, sit in the car for 1 min and let the oil circulate for a second, just because you sit for 5 mins doesnt mean the oil is going to get COOL. the engine is still running. it'll just simmer down by the EXCESSIVE heat it was just at. if you know you're going to stop don't do a 2nd to the top of 4th gear pull.

 

they mean 5th gear cause you put a lot of stress on the engine because it has to work so hard to turn the tires over in 5th. if you're going 120 and you go into 5th its fine... if you're goin 65 and you press it to the floor in 5th it might put extra stress on your engine.

but wit my torquey teg i could go from 65 to 100 in 5th gear really fast :P

 

yea it`s like if want to pass someone don`t get lazy, move ur freaking leg/hand drop it a gear to pass, then put it back to 5th..

 

That's exactly what I was thinking Steve. I don't boost much in 5th gear because I am usually going 120+ mph and that's just scary in a honda, but I have a few times. Oh and bouncing off the rev limiter is my favorite sound.

As far as how to drive a turbo honda, just make sure you have good fuel management and your car is tuned well. Then keep your right foot to the floor at all times. Like a few others have said if your just going to the sotre and you don't drive it hard at all it's fine to turn it off, if you have been boosting then let it cool down for a few minutes, pretty simple. Oh and turbo timers are for ricers.

EDIT: Oh and I rape my car almost everytime I drive it.
