Meh, I had two ceramic turbine CT12s that were the size of small hamsters on my old car, pushed by 3 cylinders each. Still lag, still transient issues.

Turbos are all like 'Dude, I just woke up. Gimme a sec...'

Lazy assholes.

Nothing beats an aggressive workout.

Probably my best, in a while, since its usually 2 hour routine when I shaved off 45 minutes instead. Still finished the remainder, but damn... my body is feeling it today.

No pain no gain right?
