Or yeah, I guess a good setup for the d would be cool and you've got eons and eons of options for turbo kits. Talk to Nick Tufte. He'll tell ya.

GT series garret turbos are pretty neat. 😉

Plus it can rev alot higher if you buld the valve train correctly and get it ballanced. Building a d-series is really cheap.

If he were to build up a motor, he'd spend almost as much on the build as a turbo kit for the stock d-series. And, knowing harwood's driving habits, he'd blow a built motor sky high because he'd miss 3-4 gear shifts and go in 2nd 😛 ...thats when all that money that he spent on the motor build went down the drain. But if he goes with a turbo kit, he can blow a motor and go get another stock one for $450 or less rather than building another one...i know that n/a would be better, but turbo would be more easier on the pocketbook in the long run (with harwood's ways heh)...that and bov's RULE! hehe

seriously though, if it were me, i'd go turbo just because i' have the "comfort" of knowing that if a motor decides to let go for some reason all i have to do is go find another stock one for cheap...peace

btw, WTF is harwood gonna want to do next week with his car?!?! the world will never know
