@Jim-Bob wants a B13 SE-R, but will settle for working air conditioning in his 353,000 mile Nissan Frontier.: No, I think that was pretty elegant. And correct! A turbocharged engine (with smaller turbos, and in parallel config like this) generally has to spin at a lower speed to make the same power as a larger,…

@parkave231: Nice. Heart-click nice! You really should get a star or something.

@Jim-Bob wants a B13 SE-R, but will settle for working air conditioning in his 353,000 mile Nissan Frontier.: Ding, ding, tell him what he's won, bob! Thanks for saving me a bunch of typing. You forgot ball bearing center sections that can spool with only a fart.

@oddseth: Why are turbos for diesels only when hauling?

When are people going to get the fact that turbos, when done right, make real power and torque (efficiently, too) for just about any application?

@kmiller82: Some manufacturers make twisted wheels that are directional. Usually the better ones. Same goes for rotor vent vanes. Some are straight cut (cheap), while some have directionally curved vanes to improve cooling using wheel RPM like an impeller.

All things considered, this makes more sense than throwing one on the back of an understeering FWD platform.

OMG it must be God or something.

I didn't hate him until I saw the other Ferarris in the basement...

@Quattro-luvr: Cleaning out that carbon is one of life's most fulfiling tasks.

Anything that gives the Miata "the fear of God" has to be pretty goddamned fun. I'm in.

@FordTuffMcgruff: My dad's still got one!

@JDickson87: I disagree. Our 2000MY A6 2.7T has a 6 speed, and NO ESP/DSC of any kind. It has ABS, but that's standard on everything. We also bought it used for $12k.

@DK_Saj: And instigate a whole generation of copycats and cheap aftermarket "angel eyes"/"LED running lights..."

@FlyingUndeadSheep: So, do you not date women that appear a little feminine? Afraid of assplay? Don't shave your junk? Yes, you need to get over yourself. :) It's only gay if you do it with a man.

@rickerbr: Hasn't VAG been taking market share in blitzkrieg fashion? Alot of that is due to the flood of new models since the mid-2000's

@tzed: Do you look at a car as a toy, or an appliance? You sure you're on the right website? ;)

@teknoboy66: Not I. Not for a few years, when the lease returns come back. B7 RS4's only need a couple more years to get into my range...

@Heel-Toe: Hasn't Audi moved the drivetrain rearward in all newer models?
