Well as for turbos. a T3/T4 will do, but you need to clue your buddy in on Fuel Management and other things before boosting the D17 and its weak ass bottom end.

I agree, the D17's are the redheaded stepchild of the D series.....dumb, ugly, slow, and weak.

Hell I dont know, there are plenty of people on here with stock cars and they have no less respect than others with fully built/modded cars.

Exactly. Did 7 think we all thought he was "The Man" cuz he supposidly had a boosted k20 civic? I couldnt care less. Granted it would be a nice and fast setup, but I look down upon him for lying about it, i guess he is insecure. I bet he wont be around here anymore though.
