1000 HP is still a magical number for tuners, even with all this tech they have with turbos and materials. Imagine having 1000 HP back in the 90s, before all this F&F Supra craze, when cars had around 100 HP. and supercars 300-400 It's just mental...

[@---ti4pr]

Terry Skarry we’re talking modifying a Ferrari in the 90’s where computers and tuning was harder everything was essentially a concept and applying knowledge of unknown and uncharted territory then

[@SkarryTerry]

@@---ti4pr bro. He didn't even say ECU. So your auto terminology, and knowledge needs expanding, that's living. We both enjoy cars, but I completely understood every word he said. I even related with him cause I owned a miata, NA6(if you know miatas), and he just went to a shop and learned from them. So, a turbocharger is different than a supercharger, look at the title, car dude.

[@---ti4pr]

Terry Skarry no I understand but the basis of putting a turbo or any power mods for that matter requires running from the computer for it to work together, I’m not an idiot I know what I’m talking about , we all got the same passion
