big advantage??

So I would say with just a 30 shot of nitris you would get owned. However, he is using nitris which changes a lot of things as far as his car's computer is concerned. He needs his car tuned or possibly a new ecu. If he did none of this the nitris may actually hinder his performace because of all the variable nitris would affect. I say if he did not tune his car you may win. If he did, you don't stand an effin chance.

YES if the drivers are about equal than the LS would own the GSR but dude i think your an idiot saying the gsr 30hp is not a "true" 30hp. 30hp is 30hp. And YES looking at 1/4 mile times they arent soo far apart but thats because LS has more low end power than a GSR so at times off the launch a GSR will have trouble keeping up with a LS through 1st and 2nd but due to the gear ratios on the LS it has no pull in 3rd so thats where the GSR pulls and then the 1/4 mile would be over right after the GSR pulls a little which explains why the 1/4 mile times are so close but if you look at it from not just a 1/4 mile than a GSR has more mid range and top end power then the LS and the VTEC will kick at higher RPM but in a racing situation the GSR is always at high RPM so that shouldnt be anything to argue about either. And I would think that he did tune his car after he got the nitrous because I think everyone knows that you just cant slap everything together in a car and expect it to be fast so I think he did tune his car. But now in this situation the LS definitely has an advantage but I wouldnt say that its GUARANTEED to win. The spec numbers on a car arent everything.

i'd say the LS will win. on a 55 shot, the LS is probably lay n down a good 180whp which is more than what u r push n. he'll get u from 1st and 2nd and u will pull a little in 3rd but not enough to catch up

Hey nice teg dude

thanks, that lip got shattered so im run n w/o it now.

well if you want to really hand his ass to him you could ge the ls trany to help out you bottom end. that what my friend did. he also has a type r ecu and a fully built motor. But in your case i would say you will be smoked just for the fact of that quick boost of power but that depends on how far you are racing. top speed you will catch up sooner or later
