Stimpy brought his turbo PT vert over last week. It looks awesome. Took me for a ride; it pulls and pulls and pulls and pulls. Awesome powerband. Pretty cool car.

Turbos are fun cars. My WRX was fun, but had a bit of turbo lag, my Legacy is much faster and the lag is almost non existant.
I was having a problem with the driver's side TGV sticking and this made the car run like shit. It cost me over $600 to get it replaced and now the car runs as fast as it did when new. I can hit well over 100 MPH on the on ramps to the Greenway here, so I have to take it easy on the gas pedal. :thumbleft:
Jeff post some pics. PT Cruisers can look pretty trick when customized.

I treat others as they treat me
Hokay, I uploaded some pics. Enoy.
In Santa Cruz a couple of weeks ago.
Club meets. That's me next to a normal size person.
Just cruisin the coast.
After I first got it.
My "Man Pedal" REAL men have 3 pedals! (Actually it is a left foot accelerator pedal, that is a dead pedal on the right. Nerve damage sucks ass.
My homeboy Joe tries out the horn. He really digs "red car".
Anyway, those are some recent pics (mostly) At least I didn't bore y'all with old pics, these are all new boring pics!

Fuck you Shaun , one day those little boys will talk and when they do you will get yours.
Yeah, they pulled a GM move; as soon asthey got it right, they fuck it up. The 2.4l Turbo is a super tunable car, I wish I could still drive a stick so I could get some real hp, but suppsedly @ 300 hp the autostick grenades. Then again, I'm old enough to know better then having a 300+ hp sport compact on the street. A little shot of nitrous to eliminate turbo lag will be zsufficient to make it move.
