don't give up. you'll be so much happier when its in. you'll never forget the moment you feel when u first hit boost... its like nuting and u jus wanna do it again lol. trust me. once u feel boost, you'll never go back to anything else ever again. i boosted 2 of my own honda's and now my 240... i talked 3 of my honda friends to boost there's and they've all been happy. u dont need to do to much tuning. jus get a nice basemap from projekteg if he still does it then go to the dyno and see how close it is. or piggyback it with an afc since most dyno spots dont even kno what uber/TE is... you'll have no regrets once its in... trust me.

he'll have regrets when he murders 4 innocent mini-pistons.
then 4 more later.
of course i would do it, but you'd better be prepared for some matenience costs. and downtime for rebuilding stock motors.

If you can weld up a manifold, downpipe, chargepipes, weld up a new exhaust, do all the fuel management and get it to run right in a night than your a better man than me. It takes me a weekend just to build the manifold.
And to turbo the Mustang I'll need to rewire lots of the engine and becuase I'll be running MEgasquirt and becuase of where the turbo will be monted I'll be running sidepipes which all have to be fabbed so doing it in one night is next to impossible.
Exhaust I want to do with roush sideskirts:

Re: calling it quits? (turbo game)
i wanted a sidepipe on my crx :P
no seriously.
Eh, you think you wil give up, but when you sell all your stuff, you'll just spend more money and buy them all over again, which sometimes cost more money because you want better stuff than what you had before. Believe me, happened to me 3 times and I still haven't boosted a Honda.
I called it quits for now, selling off practically all my stuff, but I know the truth, and it's just temporary, I'll be back and when that time comes, hopefully I'll have money saved for the $$$x2 I know I'll be spending.
