Default Re: Turbo OR N/a

Some funny comments in this thread. As I said na is more suitable for what I am doing. Track days, hill climbs sfa street/road use. And the fact that I already have a decent na motor to begin with helped sway my decision. If I had the funding I would definately go with a turbo motor- but with a decent turbo motor you need a better cooling system- oil and water, stronger gearbox, diff, clutch. Once figures get to a certain point the standard stuff just doesn't cut it. My na motor will make ~250rwhp in a car that weighs sub 1000kg. Much more power than this and things need replacing/upgrading.
