Lightbulb Who Will Win

Hey guys i don't know if yall remeber, i posted a while ago i had an rs, and i was gonna race a firebird, the v6, or v8, and i also posted that i was gonna sell it, well good news i sold it for 6k, and i found a 91 Talon AWD tsi 5 speed, with a killer engine, they told me its the enigne with the 6 bolt cyclone throttel body, yea i bought it for 4k, its stock right now but with the extra money i need to mod it out if yall could give some advice on the mods i need. And also im gonna race the fire bird this time and my friend 2005 jetta 1.8 Turbo so u think i got a chance this time with 91 firebird than before when i had the rs, and do i have a chance with the jetta 1.8 Turbo Thanks I would greatly apriciate it.

my matches= Stock, Talon Tsi AWD, 5-speed VS 91 FireBird Stock, Auto
VS 2005 VW Jett 1.8T Manual, Stock

Re: Who Will Win

I dont know the Firebird even though they look powerful they are heavy. You may beat it with a good lunch and lots of luck but the Jetta, I would bet that he might win. I gove it 50/50. One of my fiend just bought a 1.8 jetta 3 days ago or so and I have to say its pretty fast for 180hp.

Re: Who Will Win

dsmtuners.com has a tuning guide with prices and horsepower goals. It's hard to say what to buy when no one knows how far you want to take this car. No one likes bench racing go race and find out who's faster...

Here is some advice: Just go race, what the worst that could happen? You lose. Its not a huge deal.

Re: Who Will Win

Holy fuck man, a 91 TSI AWD for $4000?!?! Jesus, you got fucked on that one. A cyclone tb is definately not a "sick engine". 300hp harder than you think. Just stick to the basic mods and have fun for a while.
