The point? FUN! With that kind of attitude, there wouldn't be the 12second minivan (dodge caravan w/ an enormous garret turbo on it), or the 9.5 second reliant (god knows wtf is in this thing)... The mysteriously legendary subaru GL rally wagon(I believe one of the dudes at WCC actually owns or did own this)... the list goes on.
If you're one of the people who believes that modifying the aveo isn't worth the time or effort, why not just stay out of this forum all together? Just check out the tech forum if you're having problems.
If you believe that the s/c is a waste of time and he should just slap a turbo on there... it's been said. Move on to another thread, unless you have some tidbit of information that hasn't been touched upon.

calm down the bud, im all for modding the aveos/ waves, my interior is all done, my sound system is insane and im wainting for exterior mods to come out... im just saying that, like aveosam said, throwing a turbo or a s/c on one of our cars will pretty much just give the h/p of most other cars come with stock, then whats the pooint? the guy you're racing will just be intrigues that you have the same h/p as him so he'll go and throw a turbo or s/c on his car and then you're back to square one after the next race.

first the cars that have same amout of power stock, that aveo would have boosted weigh alot more, and if you race i think you shuld race in your class, (1.6l 100 HP+)
by the way, aveo that weighs 2543lb (stock weight) with 160hp at the fly wheel, will be as fast as 2006 BMW 330i, the fanny thing is that you can buy 3 aveos for the price of 1 bmw.
you guys are so negative about making our car fast, but you still get mad when people say aveo is a car to get from point A to point B. we need to have some faith in out cars, and about $3 000 in our pockets and the aveo will be fast.

I dont think anyone got angry when people state that the aveo is a car to get from point a to point b because that is what it is for. It is an economy car and nothing else. Id like to see 160 hp aveo haha. The trans would break everytime you ran it at the track. And a boosted aveo motor would just meltdown.

wasting a couple grand to keep up with traffic is not fun What's the fun of not keeping up with traffic? I have no plans of boosting my aveo but you won't catch me telling someone else it's a waste of time. Is it really any more a waste of time than wheels, body kits and other non performance related mods? I don't think so. In fact if I could pick one performance mod or 30 cosmetic mods out of everything possible I'd go with the one performance mod. I liked the way my car looked in the lot and it looks just as good in the driveway. That doesn't mean I think you shouldn't work on the looks. I bought my car for 8 grand, if I were to spend 3 grand on performance and only got up to what most cars have stock I'd still have spent less money for the same amount of car. There were other cars I could have bought, I liked this one. Is it a waste of time? Of course but so was this paragraph I just typed.
