    Let me just say that yes the euro has a very potent chassis and the engine is somewhat potent.. but the fact is you will need to dump a large amount of money into it, to get it anywhere near 'fast'..

    getting intake/exhaust/tune/cams/forced induction/installation with the minimal amount of supporting mods (ie springs, upgraded brake pads and tyres) would probably cost 10-15k.. and that's the price you'd pay to get about 270-320whp, which is quite respectable for a euro (and quite unique!), but in the scene of jap cars.. its not really going to keep up with other turbo cars that have had maybe 4-5 grand put in it.

    so what i'm basically pointing at is that for the same amount of money (if you spend it wisely!) you can go out and buy a built nissan/toyo for 10-15k which would not only be probably faster, it would cause less headaches and RWD would also be a high point. oh and also you'd be able to keep your euro on the road (reliability)

    but on the other hand, if you love your euro so much, or want to do something that is unique, or enjoy building a car.. then by all means go ahead (i am also quite hyped for a member here who is supercharging his euro, and am looking forward to see how his car goes, so im no hater)

    just throwing out the other options.. if you want to do only intake/exhaust, well.. your euro is still going to be slow, but then again it depends what you want to achieve out of your mods
