I know the potential of a turbocharged motor... I used to have a turbocharged '93 prelude si... On 11lbs i was hittin' 272 horses and 213lb-ft of tq. All i had was a thicker headgasket, Block Gaurd and a lot of tuning... I know my way around a turbocharged car but you don't see a 12 second all-motor honda everyday... That's the reason i'm doing all-motor. That's the reason people do all-motor. It's nice to be the underdog sometimes... I know when i had the Prelude i was expected to run 12's. And then when i'd have a bad pass or something would break (as turbo cars pushin' decent power usually do) people would get to talkin' about how that's sux, "His car's slow for turbo..." Then when i'd make a 12 sec. pass they'd say, "Oh, well it's turbocharged, he should be runnin' that fast!"

With this car i wanted to prove to people it could be done without forced induction. Believe me, it WILL be turbocharged and it WILL hit 11's... I could do it with an all-motor car. I just don't have the time and patience and yes, the know how to hit an "11 second daily driven all-motor car" pass...
