      Quote me where I mentioned a turbo. I asked a question about ownership and you went off the deep end.

        Because you came in here making the claim that Toyota and Honda have cheaper parts, and your claim is wrong.

          Ah I see the confusion. No I didn't.

          My comment was about going with a Honda and Toyotas if you want less issues.

                Just wait, someone will legislate that one day also...

                A study released last week showed that charging your phone in your car reduces efficiency by an average of 0.03 mpg.
                I bet my 1200 watt stereo really drags it down. Maybe that's why I'm getting 8 mpg.

                    TURBO PART NUMBER: 177275. They are balanced to or beyond OEM specifications. Compressor: 66 mm inducer / 91.4mm exducer, with exclusive Extended Tip Technology. US Turbo Systems. Turbo Features. If boost presure higher than 2.5 Bar, it will significantly reduce the turbo lifespan and may result in damaging of you engine.

                        I recently bought a 56k mile used car. I almost bought the warranty, but figured they would end up screwing me over. I've heard so many bad stories. It's almost like health insurance. They promise to cover a lot of things until you try to use it.

                          evap or condenser?

                          Either way, you came out in good shape on that deal.

                            so that means it shouldnt have cost him 300 in used parts to fix it?
