#20685, "Turboed Auto"


          

Alright I'm still learning and reading about aftermarket turbo kits. If I got the Hahn Stage I turbo kit and ran 6 PSI (From what I've read I can do it safely without ANY modifications except the kit, right?) can I beat stock GS-T's (5spd)? Or because I'm an auto will I lose to them in the long run?

Thanks

Hmmm, tough call. I'd say from a roll it'll be really close. From a dead stop no. Even still it's a HELL of faster than without it.

At 5 psi you would still run low 15's most likely. Maybe high 14's but I doubt it.

Might as well just build your block than emoji

from a dead stop he'll jump on you but depending on how long the race is you might actually take him.from a roll,good race.boost 7PSI and you should pull away from him pretty decently.

long run, you'll beat him. you aren't governed by speed. and you have REALLY long gears. you can go a lot faster than any std on here, given a long enough distance, trust me emoji
