Default New Member, who wants some BOOOST !

Hi guys, I am new to this forum and have joined because I want to learn as much as I can about turboing my car. I think I originally joined this forum when I first bought my car but then just ended up using the facebook groups instead as they were easier to access and have a nicer UI. However, it is clear that they lack the specialized knowledge that this page has ! I have absolutely no idea how to use this site but if anyone could point me to some good threads where I can read up about turboing my car that would be good. I drive a Supreme Blue Mica 2003 NB8B (VVT) with a few small mods !

Welcome to the forum, thanks a lot for joining us and showing your Mica, nice looking ride! A lot of good info here regarding mods in case you are thinking of doing any. Ask away if you're looking for any advice.

No, dont just "ask away". Thats terrible advice for this place.

Read first, Pretty much all of the threads are good. You will find total flops; they teach you what not to do, and you will find a common theme among those ones. There are tons of stock block turbo threads, and a few built block turbo.

Start reading, here, not on Facebook. Then make a thread, just 1, to corral all of YOUR victories and mistakes. Maybe also include what you would like to do with the car, like, what type of driving you envision when it's all done.

I love it when people talk to the spambot about the advice it gave.

I think you misread. Clearly I was telling OP to not listen to spambot. *****.
