its been almost 10 years since I last had a taste of a "real" turbo boost. Riding along back in the days in my buddy's modded turbo MKIV Supra and TTZ32.

Recently just been a bunch of halfass SR20DET. oi!

For some very strange reason i think Shawna knows how it feels to feel huge amounts of boost.

Awesome post Smoker, that really took me back. I had a friend in high school with a Camaro with dual quad Holleys and a velocity stack sticking out of the hood. I swear that car could pull the front tires off the ground. Good times.

Feeling G's or riding in boosted G's?!
I've got a road up here by JMU that starts in harrisonburg, VA and ends up in west virginia. A few car clubs and motorcyclists take it, I'm sure its nothing compared to the tail of the dragon I've heard about, but it shakes me up!
its called route 33 West.

I remember my first time. It was in a 800hp 96' limited edition supra.

I remember the turbo lag well. From 0-45 the car felt weak. Then at 45 all 800 horeses kicked in and scared the hell out of me.

It was a single turbo automatic.
