if he has an AWD go from a roll if it's fwd go from a dig, gives you a better chance that way, and its hard to say who would win it depends on the size turbo he's running along with supporting mods

 

Its AWD...My buddy said that he thinks he has the whole turbo kit and is running 10psi, CAI.

 

ok a whole turbo kit tells me nothing about the size of the turbo. 10psi is petty boost... stock boost on those cars is around 12 psi i believe

 

well i am pretty sure that its like 8lb of boost that is stock but im sure the kid told me that he is running only 10 lb of boost anyway he is convinced that he can take me im sure he has me off the line and thats it but i think i have him after that

 

like i said it depends on what size turbo it is... and like i said 10lbs of boost is petty for those motors, my buddy ran 17-19psi on his fwd dsm on a small 13g when he put on a ported 14b he was running about 16psi and around 250whp then he put on an evo big 16g and was also running about 15-16psi and making around 300whp

 

Yeah, I dont want to say anything for sure cause I dont know too much about Talons but I guess I will have to race him and fine out...

Thanks!

if he is truly on 10psi I cant see his car being much of a beast from a roll but remember if he has an electronic boost controller all it takes is to push a button and the boost goes up without you knowing, or even if he has a manual one inside the car turn the **** and yea

 

If he doesn't have anything else done to his engine then wouldn't that hurt his engine if he turned the boost up to high...I dont know much about turbos...But I do know that this guy isn't that worried about his outside appearance cause the thing is all flat black and he has only a front bumper on it from a body kit...IDK, maybe he is going for the sleeper look...He is from a redneck town so who knows!!!

 

many many dsm guys go for the sleeper look. and yes if he turned the boost up too much it could hurt it if the motor isnt built properly but remember my roomate's took 17-19psi daily on pump gas with a small turbo 16 with another small but larger than the first turbo and 16 with a medium sized turbo

 

I really hope he isn't running 8-10 psi. No matter what the turbo he'd have a hard time making even stock power levels. 18-20 would be much more useful.

I've seen 400whp DSMs with stock internals so they can handle a few extra psi.

 

more than agreed and was pretty much the point i wanted to get across

 

Tangled with a Mitsubishi (I don't know rice) 2 days ago on E_way. He was turboed. He was driving eratic and figured he would blow past (with more speed than me) a lowly 97 Camaro @ 65 and cut me off in the left lane. I droped to 3rd (with the dump open) and walked away easy. Then, did it again after we got even. (97ss 383 D1 afr_190 72# Seimens Meth Inj. M6)
