| Message: | "I would hesitate to use any aftermarket products on this car that are not very well known,especially with regrads to performance mods." I'd even be hesitant to use products by the known and respected aftermarket people such as Dinan and Active unless they'd be willing to throw in a lifetime engine warranty. :) Unless the engineering has changed significantly, turbo'd engines were generally accepted to have a shorter engine life anyway and with all this technology that's gone into this bi-turbo and all the unknowns that go with it, there's no way I'd risk trying to push the envelope unless I was a serious track junkie with a sponsor. And of course I realize I probably sound like a broken record, but if the car's not going to see a lot of track action, who really needs more power than the car's already got? And looking down the road at the eventual resale, how many people are going to want to consider a turbo'd car that's been modified? I'm thinking the audience would be noticeably small. Like has been said a million times, the money's probably better spent on driver training. The car is already capable of doing much more than 99% of people are skilled enough to handle.
