The small turbo i had on my car last year was great in auto x. My problem occurred when that power came on in a bend. :whitey: Oddly enough, Whitey went faster with the boost turned down :burnout: Plently of turbo cars out there running fast times. Key is to drive smooth enough to keep the thing in boost. Even a NA 4 cyclinder is going to suck ass if the RPMs fall to low. Problem with FWD is getting the power down (thankfully most factory turbo FWD cars have LSD’s already). What kinda suspension you planning anything good? ---

Those cars are putting down 185whp, and from what I understand you’d be lucky to see 140whp out of that thing.

I dont think theres a such thing… that would be like a trd car that never came out… but it sounds like he cant drive… 5sfe powered celicas 90-99 normally see anywhere from 15.9-16’s… Im sure a rsx-s is a lot faster than that. ---

haha yeah it is just a mugen kit on a type-s. i do know for a fact that i am making more than 140whp. weight could also be a factor i am around 300lbs lighter. i may not be making the same power but for some reason, the 2 pulls that we did, we where even. i found a local shop that will let me find my numbers $50 for an hour session ---

And how in the hell is your car in BSP with Corvettes, EVOs, and STi’s? Without even looking up the rules I’m pretty damn sure you should be in a lower class with cars you actually stand a chance against. On the bright side you got to try it out a little and thats cool 🙂 Looks like you were racing on a airport runway someplace? ---
