There is a great article in Sport Compact Car this month. It's the one with the Contour in it. Outlines many details of a turbo, how it works...blah blah. May wanna check it out if you are considering Turbo time! STD's are like Pokemon... Gotta catch em' all!

I plan on doing that anyways to help with the heat problem. I almolst have enough cash one more bonus from work and I'm all over it, but I'm kinda worried about the internal parts of the engine. I think I'll go with the 6 pound kit and upgrade later if needed. I think the tranny could handel some reasonable power, not too worried there. Spelling should not count 2000 SE Zetec ATX Medium Steel Blue (Now with large custom dent on the rear door) Cool Blue Lows, Silver Star Highs (great lights) "If what I said was wrong, it wasn't. I just forgot to add the rest of my post."
