I was thinking about just turboing the engine that came with it...but I don't know, I'm not planning on going about 300whp, and the SR20 will serve this purpose.  And something about a stock turboed engine will make me sleep better at night.  Just makes me feel like it's a bit more reliable because it was designed for boost.  That's ultimately why I didn't turbo the teg (need too much money to make it really reliable).  But that doesn't mean I'm gonna cut corners with the SR20, of course <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I hated the understeer in my teg.  The only time I was able to get it to drift was on a dirt road with a 110 degree turn, lol.

The fastback has this sort of smooth, sexy look that i really like, hope the Silvia headlights will look good on it.
