Re: Turbo? TUR-BO!!



Good point, Brett.  My point was that the stock CIS or -E is really not
capable of ideal support of a turbo system.  What has been posted by many
are really just modifications to the system, which after some point we have
to say are not really a CIS or -E system anymore.  They may all work, but
then are they still CIS systems?
