So what car can we swap that bitch in? Does it respond well to turbo? How much will a swap cost? I need answers.

A honda with significantly more torque than horsepower. Crazy.

instead of turbos our kids will be adding more batteries and amplifiers to make their car faster.

drive by wire is gay throttle response sucks if you floor the car and the car doesnt think it should be floored it wont go to wide open throttle also the new NSX is brake and steering by wire too well thats what my friend told me who is an Acura tech

drive by wire scares me.. what if a solinoid ***** up goin 90 down the highway or a sensor or some other electrical component decides to burn up. ---- drive by wire... just get rid of power steering and tell everyone to stop being -----s.
