I have both an 89 SPG and an 89 N/A 4door.
Both have SPG silver/gold springs, Bilstien HD's, polys all around and handle the same.
The SPG is mostly stock, and really hauls.
The 4d00r is medium modded and also hauls.
the difference is where the power kicks in.
The SPG doesn't kick in until the turbo spools in the mid-range.
The N/A will spins the tires in reverse without giving it gas.
There is no doubt the SPG is faster once the turbo kicks in.
However the 4d00r has MUCH more low end torque (unintentional peelout central)
Both have absolutely ridiculed many a budget tuner (civics and foci alike)
If you do go with an N/A keep in mind that they are MUCH louder when modded,
and in fact my SPG with NO EXHAUST is about the same volume as my N/A 900.
N/A setup = K+N filter -> 2.1L intake ->2.1L manifold -> 2.5" hi flowcat-> 2.75" w/glasspack
Either will be much fun to auto-x, but the Golfs, Civics and CRXs will eat you alive.
cL0uD9o0 <-- see where that came from ? c900 is LOUD... but it sounds s0o0o go0o0od.
89' N/A 4d00r (swedish kitty) 250k+
