Personally I haven’t found any downsides with this turbo. Power is there when I need it to be. Lag is not an issue. It is actually the first turbo engine I’ve ever owned, and I feel no obvious difference in engine response or noise from naturally-aspirated engines. I’m never reminded the turbo is there, except when I…

Red water was already burnt, so this water can’t catch on fire like other blue/clear water, duh.

This week, for reasons I can’t even begin to grasp, the transportation department scrapped the idea.

And people eat it up as evidenced by whoever is clapping. “Fuck yea I’m seeing a wreck!”

I’m not permitted to agree with you, because my whopping 215hp has been just right. What I would do with an extra 300 hp is probably get lots of speeding tickets.

Ok I’m going to go on a bit of a rant here so bear with me. And some of this is based on what I’ve experienced. I’m starting to not get the point of 500-600 + horsepower sedans. Yes that’s great that your amg has 600 horsepower and that your m5 can get from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. That’s great. But. I’m going to have to…

I don’t like car culture communities outside of Jalopnik.

So about 1/5th of the power your car puts out is wasted on you? Thanks, that pretty much confirms that this article is 100% correct.

My first car when I was 16 was maybe 150hp and a probably 4000 lbs, and I got speeding tickets all the time.

Take your car to a local autocross or track day, that’s what I do to get the whole I can’t use my power on the street feeling out.

That’s cause you’re not reckless enough. I drove a 120HP car (think honda fit, 0-60 in 8.5 sec) and mashed my foot down at the last light in town with a Hyundai Genesis next to me. Sure he got to the 55mph road first but by the 3rd sweeping turn in the mountains, about a minute later I was blowing by him going well…

Oh, please. Tell it to the family up the street who’s house fire went from just the living room to the entire house being ablaze because some asshole parked in front of the hydrant and the fire crew had to waste time shoving the car out of the way, but, hey, apparently I am an asshole for wanting people give a shit.

Meanwhile, literally anywhere else:

Dog-lovers may hate on the woman, but let’s be real : animals are not “better” than humans, they’re just like us. Some of them are sweet, some of them are downright nasty.

That dog was clearly threatening. A kid who wanted to retrieve his cat could have been bitten. Although I’m thankful the officer didn’t shoot the…

I’ve gotten a speeding ticket in a 114hp Volvo before. Still capable of exceeding the legal limits, although not necessarily easy.

My daily has 180ish hp, 240ish ft-lbs, and weighs 3200lbs.

STOP RUINING IT!

I kept scrolling looking for this reference, and I am not disappointed. :D
