Any of you turbo honda guys wanna give your opinion on something? I have someone wanting to trade me a turbo'd egg but I'm not sure wtf im looking at. I was never much of a turbo guy, but this car looks like its pretty well set up. Shoot me a PM on here or stlsr if you would like to help.

TIA for any help

if you mean ep3 when you say "egg", then i wouldnt recommend it. check out ephatch.com, there is at least one a week that goes down due to half-ass tunes and what not. PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

Semi built b16 boosted eg is what he is talking about. Found out more info on it though so deal will probably fall through.
