Oh, and I haven't found I Festy quite yet, but this is the one that I think I might buy, if I can get some money together in time, or if my parents will pay for it.

Has anyone ever done FOUR turbos?
Just run all four pipes up through the hood with the four turbos out where everyone can see them. Little short "tailpipes" sticking into the air.
The turbos should quiet the loud exhaust somewhat.
Then put a sign on the hood: CAUTION: EXHAUST PIPES MAY BE HAWT!
Cool.

i heard about a button one time. i heard that it says search on it and when you click it you can find out all kinds of crap. You are asking very general questions about turbocharging. learn the basics and do lots of research. Look for "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell. Read it cover to cover at least 2 times and then start thinking about a build. I'm being serious. Either learn how it works or pay someone else to do it or else you will have a blown motor, if it even goes together, and a loss of interest.

You don't need much more than a strong 4 cylinder. These cars are lite. It's all about power to weight ratio.-Greg
