remember that there are no flashy pictures around the site in the magazine so a lot of people will skip right over that section....only the truly insane people (like me) read these magazines cover to cover and try to absorb everything!

here's the actical for all the cheap people ""Hey there,SCC.This is Brett Simmons, and i just wanted to let you all know about one of the besr sites on the web. Homemadeturbo.com is one of the most informative how-to sites. There are bunch of turbo installsshown in the turbo projects section,all with how everything was made to work very well with minimal dollars.Look though the tech projects section and they show how to do everything from building an LS/VTEC to relocating your battery.The greatest part is the forums.there are specific forms for all your turbo needs,from buying the parts toswapping the mottor, to fuel management. and, by the way there is a online chat room,too, which is great to just shoot the ---- or ask serious questions.
"The site is run by Jeff Frank and his friend Beau, who do a great job with it.Also, all these homemade projects work too. Jeff's daily-driven crx is in the low 13s and his racecar is in the 12s. Beau's crx is in the 13s now, but it will be in 11s as soon as the new turbo it is done.I wanted to let you guys in on a great site that has more than 1,000 members and is growing VERY quickly. It's a great place for people to go to make theircars real fast on a budget."
We'd add something to that,but why?"

Jeff's going to be pissed about you saying his daily driver is in the low 13's. That ****** is almost running 11's. and the site has over 2000 members now.

Good job on praising HMT in a major magazine.
