I had my insurance before the turbo and never got around to letting them know. I wonder what all these 240 guys are doing.... because those sr20 swaps are not factory USDM and most of these kids are under 25.....

It doesn't matter if you have reciepts. They said if you get into an accident and you have a turbo charged engine, supercharger or a motor that isn't the motor that came with the car then they have the right to strip you of your coverage.
That means that in the worst case, if you were to kill someone you could be liable for millions and the insurance company can wipe their hands clean.
This is where Nordic Insurance Company of Canada comes in. But I hate the fact that they usually only deal with high risk, and drunk drivers... pretty much ppl who are considered "uninsurable".
My insurance premium isn't that bad, I was quoted 1650/yr, but I have a totally clean record, and am over 30. I was paying under 1000/yr with AMA.
There has to be a company that specializes in "aftermarket" performance cars... what about all those "hot rodders"? its not just turbo and FI ppl...
