Default Why did you go FI?

not a question to yield any specific answer, just conversation.

so why did you decide to go FI?
Bling Factor?
Just needed that extra power?
Track Junkie?
Hate V8's and wanted them to admire your rear end?
Or you had money to blow, so you got a blower?

Let the conversations begin.....

Definitely can relate to the part about hating the V8's... I love the surprise element of sneaking up on them and making them eat turbo exhaust...

Went SC b/c after a few years, the thrill of vtec alone wasn't enough. Went turbo b/c a SC was like foreplay w/o the big finish

Got to ride in John's car at inline pro back in the beginning of 04 and had to get one. Found the car, went FI there after, and upgraded the bottom end one year later not by choice.

LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

I wanted some extra power, and the usability of the powerband from a proper turbo setup for daily driving is awesome.
