I believe there is a thread regarding that somewhere on the forum.

XSBoost is doing that right now I think... After his engine blew he decided to sell his turbo parts and make it an NA for events.

It all started because my buddy is re-building a Saab Viggen... He is waiting for a new turbo and I told him to just NA that "bia'tch"!! HA ha

He always razes me about my car's lack of horsepower... But at the end of the day I have rear wheel drive, and no understeer... So i am happy.

*** I used to have a Saab 9-3 Turbo with a few mods, and do miss the top end power. Especially on the highway... I see a 944turbo (or 930turbo ) in my future.
