I'm not sure I will ever be able to go back to an N/A car... sound, power, the way the car drives... there's nothing else like it.

If you think that is a bad thing, consider the history of turbo'd vehicles and all that surrounds it. A turbo is extremely efficient for an engine and, if built right and not abused, will be very reliable.

Turbo is definatly an addiction.

self-control is very important in a turbo vehicle.. u always wanna turn it up & ever time u do it pulls even harder.

know your limitations & have some serious self-control if you decide to go turbo!

You'll love it!
