Custom Turbo -- fun and exciting to gather parts and fabricate, rather expensive, LOTS of frustrating downtime, unique, powerful, an ongoing project, rippingly fast compared to stock, have to use 91 octane or better, requires gauges and constant visual monitoring (popped a small oil leak last week from the oil return line) and repairing, negative stress from not knowing how long my motor might last, offset by excitement every time I put my foot in it.

so far.... totally worth it. pshhh pshhhh !!
