Single Turbo?

[BlitzBoy]

Mk1 XR2 is the way to go proper little go kart if you can still find one

you all seem to have small little run arounds too I have a 1.3 Ka.... now thats what i call power! one wrong move in that and you\'ll be regretting it....thats if you can get it to move in the first place:Tongue1:Giggle

on an other note ill look into a 2nd Gen and see what i can find.

nah, i have the wife\'s car when she doesn\'t need it! My FD is the one and only car I own!

Hell of a jump in power and driving style there bud.  As you say, maybe a couple of years getting used to RWD before buying the FD.

My bro went from a KA to an MX5.  Its an 1.8, and isnt too bad to learn RWD in.  There are also plenty of parts if youre wanting to modify.

Just a thought

I think i must be different then?? I did my Single Turbo mod because my Turbo\'s let go and it would have cost £1200 to get them Recon\'d and it just worked out cheaper to buy a Single turbo kit with the mods i already had fitted.

Plus i like the power delivery, its more predictable when you are giving it some through the twistys.

cool sounds good, i will hopefully go single turbo one day

as soon as i got a 100hp car i wanted a 200hp car etc etc, im at 350bhp now and i want 420, the amount of power isnt a problem, its how mature you are, a young person is very likely to show off too much and take a corner too quick, if you have a good head theres no reason why a young lad cant have a 600hp car. lucky sod

MX-5\'s are wicked. Drove my mother in laws one a few times, and it handles just like an RX-7. Feels like a mini one. Very cool.

if you want to get used to all the maintenance needed, id go for an fc, maybe an egi or tII, think the egi is about the same as the mx-5, though i could be wrong
