so i had to pick my sister up form school today, (my old h.s) :icon16: so i havent been there in a while, some of the people rember me, so im going up the hill to the school minding my own business and im blowing off as usually making all the little h.s kids turn their head, when i see this nice red 91 supra comming on the opposite side, at first i didnt think he was turbo, but i guess when he heard my bov he massed the gas and let his sound, he had a hks super sequental.
i figured i would never see him again, so i turn th block to circle once again b/c i got time to kill and he happens to turn the block as well, so im behind him, he hears my car and steps on his, so im boosting 12psi and im on his ass, mind you i have a exhasut leak right before my turbo again, but its not too bad, so i follow him to the hi-way servce road 2 blocks away, alot of traffic but i get to the side of him and he wasnt pass or pullin on me, but it wasnt for long b/c it was around 230 in the day, so i cut back towards the school to park up and wait for my sister, he comes back around and asks what i got, i reply 2.5 turbo and intake boosting 12.5 psi, i ask him what he has, says all major boltons beside fmic,(intake, fuel pump, afp, safc,bov, hard pipes, ect) running 15psi with a 3" turbo back, so we exchange numbers b/c he wants to run again. if he calls ill run him to see what i got on a supra...

or

possibly even
"c spra, ngo,w8ing"

what was the point of the post by "allthrottlenobottle" ?

is it a joke? or just trying to be plain offensive...?

anyhow, hope you had a good time playing with the supra, a race would be cool.
On another note, i havnt had the internet for a while, and its good to be back on AF!

Good luck with that Supra and those modes if he ever calls. I bet he is pushing close, if not over, 300 to the wheels.

What is stock boost for a Probe GT, and do you know how much power you are getting to the wheels?

I'm guessing a 7M-GTE? Give him a run if he wants, but if what he said is true, I think he will win. The best of luck. Get that exhaust leak fixed. Thankfully my only exhuast leak is after the turbo.

Aaawwww....C'mon you gotta tell. O.K. just tell me and I won't tell anyone else, j/k. Well if it's better than your turbo probe I'm sure it will be well worth the wait. I'll be patient. Good luck with that supra race. Can't wait to hear how it turns out. Drive safe. Late...

ok ill spill it..
a 90 talon tsi,
1300, mods are hks copper gasket, and underdrive pullys, new head, and clutch and flywheel, all it needs is a downpipe, and its boosting 15psi..
the mods im gona do are evo3 02 housing, rre 3" down pipe , hi flow cat, and 3" apex-i n1 exhaust, with a cone fliter, and 255intank and adj,fuel pressure reg, and a data logger is a must..

any suggestion or advice welcome..

I honestly think you have a shot of beating the Supra. Give him a run, he won't blow your doors off that's for sure, and if you shift well, you could end up beating him.

It seems that if he has those types of mods and is running 15 psi he might have an upgraded turbo a CT-26 60-1 wheel. Which if he has these he could be making anywhere from 350rwhp to 420rwhp tuned. If you go from a stop he might have more torque than you but the Ct-26 falls flat on its face after 5000rpm. Here are some numbers the 7mgte can do http://7mpower.com/index.shtml
