+1 for daily driven turbo'd tc's... you only run into problems if you half A$$ it... if you do it right from the beginning and enjoy your car without going boost crazy or racing every civic that gives you a dirty look at the light (thats probably the hardest thing) then itll be good to you... change your oil a little more regularly and presto a great car.

Right on! I'm glad I was able to help, even though I wasn't actually there!

I have a ZPI (come on, don't laugh, I got a good deal on it) Stage 1, with 550 injectors and a good tune. I also run 10.5 lbs of boost. Driving freeway back and forth to work, keeping boost to a minimum, I still get 28 mpg!!!!

I daily drive my turbo tC and its fine. Don't know my mpg though. All I can say is I use about $25 worth of gas a week to get to and from work which is a 20 min drive to, and an hour home (damn rush hour).

Oh and I too hit boost just about every light... just love the sound of it commin out of 1st gear...
