Are the chrome eBay ones decent for 5 bucks? Is that where people are getting them?
Thanks

Right. I asked, though if eBay was where people are getting them.
Thanks

True True True.

They still look decent, though. Especially on a dark car.
My K03 will have to do for now

Is the A4 turbo, not a real turbo? Is it like to fake B/O valves? Come on, it is a turbo charged engine. Why not? A bit too prissy and elitist, aren't we not? It does not say: "One helluva Turbo". It just says "Turbo". Albeit, it is arguable on how nice it would be to have Porsche badge on an Audi...regardless of the companies relation...

for once ill agree with you and all your exclamation points

everyone used to try to race me when i had a4/1.8t, now that ive debagdged, not so much... if you put TURBO on the back, you better have a BT/BAT to back it up otherwise you will be getting laughed at by some redneck in a truck or chick in a Mini or vw turbo bug that just smoked you

Jeez guys, it seems we all picked a terrible platform to work with here in stock form...especially the ones who spent a TON of money to get a 14.xx car :/
I used to have a real turbo car. 1986 Grand National that, with 2000 in upgrades in the early 90's, ran 11.80's@120.
THAT is a good platform to start with for all you folks with deep pockets.

Does that count?

I have two car seats in the back. I'm already getting laughed at.
I just want something that looks good and subtle. If I wanted to race everyone, I would of bought an STI.
On a related note, coming home from dinner Friday night with my wife, I saw directly in front of me, a big mufflered first gen (2002-ish) WRX get raped by a Dodge Ram. You never know whats rumbling next to you at that stop light (Big Turbo guys :o)).
Even my wife (non car chick) was like "damn!!"

those hemi rams are effing fast, not to mention the srt-8s or a tuned diesel!

It def WAS NOT an SRT. I think it was just a Hemi Ram. Definitley an exhaust, who knows...maybe more?
I thought for sure the Sube would have walked him. Even with the Ram's mods.
Oh well.

well i wouldnt say it isnt a good car, but its certainly not a 1/4 mile car... even with $20k in their cars some of these guys are just hitting 12s but they are a blast to drive and with the right suspension can outhandle just about anything except a lotus (and a few others)

An Evo, maybe? But our cars look better! LOL. It's a touring car not a drag racer, SCCA runs, that's what makes our cars shine, but so does the Dodge Neon.
