I think a lot of people are seduced by shiny things not stuff that works

To turbo the engine from say stock. Well, mine has an AEM induction kit, JASMA exhaust mani, de-cat. Nothing more. There's an awful lot involved? Full engine rebuild etc?

You can't just stick a LSD gearbox in your Type-S engine.. You will need custom plate made up (Look on Preludepower for SH to Base conversion).. Or just get a another engine with LSD gear box. :idea:

Or just forget turbo's haha. Not that I'm thinking of doing it, for now. I was just curious :)
