All I heard was " 5 reasons why turbocharged engines are more flexible and have more potential than a naturally aspirated engine"

At least with a turbo, when you're belly hung on snow, you can use launch control to superheat the exhaust/dump pipe and melt the snow expeditiously. And also, any naturally aspirated engine that sounds good will sound better with a turbo in my opinion.

Also, 472HP isn't "crazy fast"? I think anything north of 250whp/tq is dangerous for 90% of drivers, regardless of the weight of the vehicle ( trucks excluded)

Yeah I have a Subaru wagon with a JDM STi swap that puts down 262wtq or something to the effect and I've scared myself a couple times already. I might get the stock DP off it and tune it again but that will probably be the last mod to it. It's mostly* (JDM STi) stock besides the front mount intercooler. I didn't want the hood with the scoop on it to give it away. I love the BRZ just the way it is, mine is 44k completely stock still, but I feel like turbo would make a poor man's Lotus..

Yep wont get that time of my life back. I do like most of his videos. There is only 1 reason you shouldn't buy a turbocharged car.

1) So you can pick the turbocharger you want to install!

I've noticed that about once a week, this genius posts something that is cringe-worthy.

I wish forums had functions like Facebook, where you can block a user and stop seeing their posts forever...

Yeah don’t really care much for these videos and I don’t think anyone here does. Seems like if you do, you’re just trying to justify your purchase. If you have to go looking for reasons of why it’s a good car, you probably bought the wrong one.

So what are you trying to say Granted?

Always hated that fucker. He found the click bait cheat code and been targeted fools like our dearest granted taken. He is as gullible as Sotty Killmore YouTube fans.

Why would you ever listen to a dude that has a physical hard time moving the automatic shifter out of park.
