Protege 1.8T

Lol, I was talking with my friend about cars, turbos, etc etc etc...

Since I've got a '99 Pro, my friend made a good comment, about getting a Turbo added to my car. He said if I did that, then I could rip off a 1.8T badge from a Audi/Jetta/Golf, etc, and put it on my car... haha, that would be shweet!

haha, right, simply 'debadge' a car to give another lucky owner that 'shaved' look....

Oh, take out his stereo while you're at it too, they'll like the modified look....

Put a protege "DX" sticker on your car after you turbo it. Then, you'll have a nice sleeper.

I dunno why but I thought of the 1.8T badge this very morning!
Unfortunately,commercial turbo's for 1,8L pro's are far away I think.Let's just hope that someone's REALLY working on it and will make it available..

eeterp: yeah I'd have to rip of my LX badge... hehe.. or turn the L into a D somehow... That would still ROCK!

traffik: Yeah, hopefully once the Turbo Pro comes out, they'll release Turbo kits for our exisiting cars.. and hopefully not only for the 2.0l but for the 1.8l too!
