Staff's Turbo Project's : update,current,blown,running..
 
Was just wondering how many of the staff here still have there "Turbo Project's" and any ones currently going on? Just curious what you guys got going on and if there are any new horror stories or good times, feel free to get it off your chest and share it here. You got open ears from all of us. Thanks again guys.

My car is actually going to be run all motor at first with a simple b20/vtec. Im a little ---- about everything and want to make sure I didnt ---- anything up building the car which Im sure I did.


With the way the economy is going Im a little scared to throw every penny I make at the car since my life is based around the automotive field
