As far as education goes, a high school diploma is pretty valuable. I think that no matter what your post- highs chool plansare you should finish high school and get your diploma. What if you decide to be a mechanic but a couple of months into it you hate it. If you decide to go to college, you don' t have a diploma so you have to start from the beginning again. I'm as much of a gear head as any1, but I know that I would lose my mind if I had to work on cars all day everyday. As far as your essay goes, the content is OK but your word choice/grammer could use some work.

This is a comparison paper with two sides. Hence the reason I left out Nos. This is a college paper, I wouldve never dropped out of High school lol. Its a communtiy college though, so its basically like HS all over again, I'm really not learning anything in my general classes.

Throwing in the definition of FI is a good Idea, I'l work that in and try and work on my vocab/sentence structure. This is just a rough draft to turn in. It will definetly be better by the final.

no one is gonna agree with me that he should point out that a turbo is just an exhaust drivne supercharger rather then belt driven?

No no no, the reason the supercharger is still used is turbo lag! A good analogy is if you win the lotto... you can pick the lump sum which isn't as efficient but you get it RIGHT NOW (supercharger) or you can pick to get it in payments which yeilds more but you have to wait for it (turbo [booo].)

Yes this is true, but technically a turbocharger is infact the excat same thing as supercharger but it is exhaust driven which relies on the force of exhaust to build boost where as a super charger uses a belt so the power is always there

Didn't read much of the thread. I'm just gonna say, if you write about cars for an English paper, approach the subject like your audience (teacher, whoever) knows absolutely nothing about cars. You'll want to do this for a technical paper of any subject when written for an audience not of that paticular technical field.
