What Are You Driving ?

I personally don't see anything wrong with four doors as long as its not FWD and has a good amount of power. On the upside, if your under 21 your insurance is about half the price or at least it was for me and also your insurance only goes up like 4% when you get a speeding ticket lol
 
Nothing wrong with 4 doors, but on small cars with both options the 2 door version is going to be much easier for ingress/egress, and since I sit with the seat all the way back the B-pillar on a 4 door will be at my shoulder and kills my views and makes a huge blind spot.

The Golf/GTi/R seats don't work for me. Great car, but doesn't fit well. The Jetta GLi was a contender, as was the Beetle Turbo, but both lacked the feel I was looking for.

I got in a bunch of cars. Test drove what I fit well in. I wasn't left with too many options.

I just picked up a 2013 Mustang GT for my birthday. Ill post up some pics soon. Got a great deal on a close out and could not pass it up.
 
The whipple looks promising but there is a twin turbo kit that I really like. A car near me has the TT and I hope to check it out soon.
Turbo is the way to go. If you get s/c you get used to it and then you need (want) more power so you then go turbo.
Skip the s/c, go turbo with the boost turned down and as you need more power turn the boost up and if necessary add meth injection.
Turbo is not linear like the s/c but when the boost hits it's on!
 
I'd actually prefer the super over the turbo. From driving turbo cars the boost lag gets really annoying when trying to run a car hard in corners and shift. And powershifting or feathering the clutch with power on to keep the revs up are both good ways to wear things out quick.

I'm all about low end torque over sheer horsepower now. For a daily car anyway.

My mother got the paceman s and it has zero lag compared to my Subaru LOL. I was blown away by the response of their little 1.6 twin scroll turbo powerplant. My friend has the older jcw mini supercharged and the paceman feels much quicker on the throttle. It takes a lot more throttle to spin the crank on the supercharged version when taking off from a stop imo.
