They are incredibly addictive and there is always another mod that means you can increase power...but along with that ability comes heat, cost, reliability etc. So if you use the 944 or S2 as your base car you will never be able to go crazy with the power mods as there really isn't a whole lot you can do, so you will have to concentrate on suspension and driving to make you faster. Plus they are more reliable than the turbo cars in general.

This I am finding interesting. Most of the tracks that I have (and will be driving on) are tight with lots of turns and short straights. I had the understanding that this is not a good environment for racing with a turbo as you have trouble keeping the turbo spooled up properly to be competitive. Here is a good example, and my favourite track - Ahvenisto Race Circuit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As I understood it, a normally aspirated car with good low rev torque would do much better on this type of track over a turbo.

Am I wrong?
