Poll: Normally aspirated or forced induction?

[merlin]

Surprised n/a is winning the poll, no doubt the turbo tarts will be along soon.

 

[Fr0dders]

I drive like a chav, so F/I

Never driven 6 pot with large capacity, I'd like to drive a 530i to see what the fuss is about.

do i get internet bonus points for driving a large capacity v6 with a turbo as well ?

 

[beermonster]

I prefer turbo but not all turbo cars are setup for fun factor from the factory, this however can be rectified with usually a boost controller and remap for minimal costs

No cos you only have one turbo

 

[Fr0dders]

ah but its twinscoll

all the advantages of both

are the blades on your turbo fixed ? how very stone age

 

[InvaderGIR]

I'm not fussed. I like the kick of the turbo, but I like linear power too.

 

[Duke]

I haven't driven a turbo, but like the smooth bimmer 6 cylinder engine, which is very progressive rather than no power then a surge.

 

[Kitchster_uk]

Not really arsed to be fair, it depends on the car itself. I prefer the engine to match the car. A 200SX without FI = FAIL, a big exec cruiser with FI = FAIL, for me anyway.

 

[Thomas. PLease.]

All about N/A for me, nothing like a great N/A engine acheiveing over 100bhp per litre.

One such awesome example.

I drive a 3.0 V6. I picked Forced Induction

The Ti swayed you at the meet?

 

[MuvverRussia]

To be honest, prefer a larger N/A over a smaller engine with a turbo. And this is coming from a turbo owner.

eh ?

forgive me for being dumb, but dont you have an ST220 ?

 

[loltim]

All motor (NA) for me every time.

Yea but he can still prefer FI?

 

[Tute]

I've not driven a lot but so far, I don't really mind.

Big N/A engines are good, but if you're talking smaller than 2.0 then I think it needs to be F/I.

 

[Hunders]

Hmm... I like my turbo a lot but when driving normally it can be annoying at times.

ah.

"picked" as in the list, not his car choice

warned you i was being dumb

 

[lordrobs]

For me a turbo is a great way of getting cheap power, hence why I own a turbocharged car. If we're talking money no object (well big budget sports car at least), NA all the way

Ah well I meant N/A - I've driven the Vectra VXR tis good crack, Fox hasn't I have that over him

What's annoying about it?

 

[Phate]

I like both really...I love having a burbly 6 cynlinder NA engine but at the same time I never pass up an opportunity to go in Andys 420T

I'd love to turbo mine though
