Yeah, boost is definitely addictive. I miss it but at the same time I love the reliability/simplicity/and cost of my NA plus I'm only interested in Autocross now. My drag racing days are over...... not that T2's can't be great autocrossers though.

Speed is an addiction, you just want more and more, you can't get it fast enough while being n/a and there is a limit which you can reach quickly, that still isn't anywhere near enough. Well atleast this has been my experience.

someone needs to do some serious intake experimenting with the NA 13B's, I suspect alot of the power gains in the renesis is in the intake.
