selling out. :(
 
well, the christmas season was not very nice to me this year, i have been out of work almost all month and since it's christmas, people don't seem to be hiring anyone except underpaid overworked crap retail employees.

so, as it stands i'm de-boosting my car today. selling my "kit" to make rent. it's going for a measly $320.00 (turbo + manifold + charge pipes + downpipe + bov)

i'm pretty dissapointed that i have to get rid of it, but i plan to start anew next year when i have things paid off a bit more.

I guess that's life. At least you have enough common sense to liquidate your assets. Good luck. :-\

new job, then probably motor swap if i can afford it.

my transmission is pooched too. i've been trying to find one for a long time. (well, the bearings are pooched, the gears and syncros are all fine)

its always hard to sell toys, but at least you know whats its like, and can improve on your setup next time

such is true, my next setup will be quite different, i'm going to get machined flanges instead of trying to cut my own with the torch, probably do a race style manifold, and definately a T3. but first i've got to get hondata or an eeprom burner so i can control my timing/fuel.

---- man, when i first joined this sight (last april, i think), i started piecing together a turbo kit, right when i got everything, i blew my engine and had to sell the turbo stuff to fund a new engine, then i never got another kit, then i got a new car and have since bought parts and had to turn right around and sell them, i've had almost two complete kits, but never had a turbo car, i've never even driven a turbo car :'( but, good things come to those who wait, and just b/c i don't have a turbo, this is still the only sight i talk on, one day i WILL boost!

im right with projekteg. I first got on this site i was amped up to go turbo. I bought the fatest t3, big intercooler a, custom manifold and all the goodies to blow my y7 engine. Then times got tough, so i sold my car for 5g's and bought a chrysler 300m and my ----- of90 dx with the si moter. But one thing is for certain. B-series engines are truly great for build ups and work. but my heart goes to my little d-series engines. they are like the little engine that could. and you can do everything to them like the big boys. nothing like spanking other cars all day long with my "D". Never sell out unless the money's right of course. but know that i think about this topic i think the kid meant that he was selling his stuff and not "selling out". oh well. maybe i should get back to my computer porn.
