How about the Synergy V8. It supposedly preserves the cars handling (how would I know) and weighs less than the 4U-GSE/FA20 while maintaining the rest of the drivetrain. |

My first post that riled him up so bad was to differentiate between an FRS and a car altered enough to compete with Pony cars I don't even say it is a bad idea just simply that they are not the same thing. End of story.

Good healthy debate.....no i wasnt butt hurt...and no i didnt call you out.....debate is healthy......exuberance on topic is good......just disagree on some finer points.....we share the same age btw.....and I see the same wisdom to not let things get out of control......I applaud you on that.....hopefully we can do this again on other topics.......I would ask you who you are going to vote for president but I see your a Canuck......how do you feel about gun control?......only kidding...

I'd say don't listen to anyone here and do what you want. Believe me, it will be a rewarding experience. You will learn a lot just by trying to mod and the fun factor will shoot up, especially if it's a dd, might as well make the most of it. And yes, I'm boosted and it's fun beating higher performers off the line. That's why I bought the car, to have fun. Anyways, to reach your goals, I'd advise supercharging rather than turbo charging. It's by far cheaper. Most kits run less than $5k. Get your supporting mods like headers, front pipe, over pipe and exhaust. You will need a flex fuel kit to run E85 and a tune along with larger injectors and a new fuel pump. I'd also advise getting an M85 differential from a Lexus IS300, that will make a huge difference. All of this will get you up to 310whp which is really quick for a light car. All of this will run you about $10k. A bit pricey, but worth it. lol

I am not saying you did btw. I am saying how people bash in general. by the way it seemed I can see how it was thought that I meant you, but I was late to the convo. I am saying that I am a purist but that I dont bash peoples choices. So I apologize for the confusion.
