I would say no. If you really want turbo that bad you could get a better car than that.

hell no. the dsm is one of the most temperamental and unreliable cars you can get. i've worked on 2gs, 1gs, I even did a turbo 5spd swap into a non turbo automatic 1g. Not worth it. The lexus platform has so much more to offer, plus the engines are smoother, you can boost them to high heaven without blowing the engine, and they look a thousand times better.

I'll always take a good looking but slow car over a fast but ugly car...It's like would you rather have an ugly girl that's good in bed or a pretty girl that sucks in bed?

EDIT: not bad for a thousandth post eh lol

my last car was a 2g gsx and im not gonna lie i miss it. that thing was getting a little over 300hp to the wheels and pulled hella hard. it was totalled then i got the sc300. then that was tottalled 6 weeks after i got it lol. then i got a lil bucket. but i must say im looking for another sc300 lol. partly why is because i messed up my back real bad in the accidents and i did 90% of the work on my gsx myself. i think the sc300 you can get the best of both worlds in function over form. the 1g dsm's are a beast on the strip but are fugly. the sc's can be both pretty easily.

My other car right now is a '91 tsi awd with a 60-1 and 428awhp.... and while dsm's are fast, they just feel like little toy cars compared to a SC. It's like no matter what you do to them you will still feel like you're in a little cheap beater that just happens to be fast.
