alright guys this is why we have columbine kids in our country...lol let it go he just didnt know. and at 15 yeah i probably would have called you all @%@$#%@ too... in fact funny story when i was 15 i was in a theater watching a movie and talking to these girls loudly when an older lady close by told us to shut up. i looked at her and said why dont you shut your fat A#$ up bi#@%. the whole theater went silent. it was priceless. later that year after summer guess who became my history teacher. oh man that year sucked. point is kids have a short fuse and when they get older they learn not to be lttle sh#$$. most of them.

Well since it's your first car, I'll go a bit easy.... First off, there is nothing cheap about turbocharging a car, it's not like putting an exhaust or intake on... A basic turbo kit for, say a ford focus zetec is roughly $3-5K depending on quality of parts. Second, focus your attention on maintenance, even though these cars can be bought cheap, they definitely aren't cheap to maintain properly. Third, it seems like you may not be working with a huge budget since you're looking at a kit that's about in the $100-$200 area, so you need to think intake / exhaust type of mods.... You've got plenty of time to mod cars, start slow and appreciate every step, once you've turned wrenches a while, then start thinking forced induction. Congrats on the car

Now this post shows your age. There are quite a few people on here with the knowledge to get you where you need to go. However next time leave out the attitude and start with: I am 15 years old... this is my first car and I am still learning about the engine. This way you will get some respect and help.

You still have alot of learning to do my man..just search and read
