Why would it be insane? Too much boost = car no run no more.

why would it not be true? The supra had twin sequental turbos and everyone knows what they are capaple of. I think that the 1st gen eclipses wastegate (or something) started to leak after 14 anyway....its just couldnt take it

the geekz0r (11:04:16 PM): so 2nd pulls like 1st in the 5speed, 3rd is like 2nd, etc.
PortugeeTex (11:04:26 PM): so whats 1st like then?
the geekz0r (11:04:49 PM): 1st is like hitting a cheeta in the ass with a tazer
PortugeeTex (11:04:53 PM): lmfao
