darksrt4 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 yeah some ppl dont relize how long Cars have hadd super/turbo chargers on them. I think it is funny when ppl talk of how it is new crap and cheating, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOS50 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I don't care what makes a car accelerate as long as you get to the finish line first.I remember the Turbo Olds of the 60's,the Supercharged T-birds in the late 50's and on and on.Horsepower is horsepower.

Trouble Maker Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I think it is funny when ppl talk of how it is new crap... We are in the golden age for turbochargers (FI period) on factory cars. No doubt about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
