This is why... I'm not a fan of "turbo-ing" cars...

And why I like being NA.


I mean...like I said... you can turbo anything...

That's why I don't see the big deal...

I went through all 15k posts and those 2 quotes I found were the only ones so I guess that would make it "everytime".  Feel free to go through all 15k posts and verify by quoting them all.  You need to quote them all to verifying prove "everytime".   Please verify that Im wrong.

Yeah but they are from the factory stock...

boost this boost that boost this boost that...

You can boost anything...

Whats the point of boosting when a boosted geo metro can beat a camaro? 

Nothing impressive about that.

If it's factory, good to go... becuase it actually came with a turbo.

It's like those cars that aren't even cars anymore... they are just a shell of a car with an engine in it, and the engine isn't even the type of engine in that car anymore.

I know what you mean and in many ways I agree. Then again of course there's a limitation to what you can do with a naturally aspirated motor. The only way you can get a naturally aspirated motor to do more is to....

1. Add displacement
2. Make parts more effective
3. Make the car rev higher

Then again even all these modification in itself have limitations.

If you like naturally aspirated motors then you should own more Toyota cars then. They've basically taken the most they could with the four cylinders and are now making some very good and powerful V6 and V8 motors. While everyone else is turbocharging Toyota seems to be the only upping displacement and making power the ol'skool way. Then again....Toyot a is also adding a lot of electric motors in there as well so.....that's sort like force induction.

The age of the naturally aspirated motor is basically over. It's hard to find a car line that does not have a turbo in the line somewhere no matter how many cylinders the car has. Welcome to 2016.

Dude, you like VTEC but don't like boost?  That's irony...
