I am extremely happy ive had my share of turbo cars and i hate the turbo lag surprise at corner exits!! I prefer a gradual pull from a naturally aspirated engine. Though if i was buying this thing for straight line racing i would be pretty pissed it did not come with a turbo because you are prob not going to squeeze a ton of HP from this engine unless you chip in around 5-10k for building the engine and getting a turbo kit.
