So I've got plans to build a turbo motor... So I've been trying to drive my car for the last few days the way I would need to when I'm turboed... I try and start off nice and easy and shift around 2 grand so that I would keep the boost down... I do pretty good for a little while... But then I just can't help myself sometimes to just throw my foot completely into it... I know I know... I should have some sort of self control... But I can't help it... Anyone else have this problem? Where you try your best to drive the right way, but can't stop yourself sometimes from just getting on it? I dunno... Maybe I'm the only one... lol...

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

Shift around 3000. Unless you're going to use a VERY small turbo (which will be harmful to your engine) you should be able to keep out of boost around then anyway.
