videos are decieving... we wont know who would have really won if they both launched good... by dyno charts the T/C would take him due to the 30+ tq factor... but u also have to remember the t/c ran a 14.52 which clearly shows it wasnt NEAR its potential... i ran a 14.27 with a bad launch and I havent been able to get back to the track lately due to being busy.. but I guarntee a better time.. not trying to be cocky.. but I have been practicing launch control and i think i will break my time
also there is the driving mod factor.. im guessing the Stage 2 guy had his car for about a year? as in the T/C guy had his car for 2 weeks? ... With both decent launches I put my my money towards the Stage 2 because he knows his car

How do you figure? Guess no one understands altitude.
Where was that run?
And there's a new video of an SS/TC beating an SS/SC on a track.
At the end it sounds like the lady said 13.52 but it could easily be 14.52

... because.. what you're failing to understand.. the ecu compensates for altitude by upping boost to keep the car at 260 trq......so even in ny it'll push 260 trq.. it'll push 260 trq in colorodo, japan, california, atlantis.. what ever see level you are pretty much no matter the conditions the car should push out 260 trq... this in theory should be the most consistent car known to man in stock form...

Light breather mods will help out with that...not 300 ft lbs and 275 whp

That's great. Problem is that in order to maintian that TQ level at altitude the compressor needs to work roughly 2.5% for every 1000'. So if the compressor is already maxed out at sea level (which several of you have stated in other posts) @260 Ft/lbs that would mean it would have to work an extra 20% at 8,000'. Someone please explain to me how a turbo is capable of working @ 120%.
Seriously just stop....
lulz yea because apparently the solstices/ sky's that are running the stock turbo at about 300 whp.. is actually making the compressor run at like 170% lol.. he seriously needs to just gtfo .. he's more of a n00b then i was when i started lol.. at least i Stfu when i have NO idea wtf i'm talking about though lol
i've never seen one person show that the k04 borg warner is maxed out at 260

Listen man. Your sea level adjusted numbers dont mean **** on this car because your 260ft/lbs of torque all the time. Most people will run slower times at colorado because Being in high elevation dramatically effects there cars. You DIDN'T RUN A SLOWER TIME because the ecu turned up the boost in the car so it can run the same times. If the ecu did not, you wouldve ran prob a 14.8-15.0. So when you come to NY, the boost is gonna get turned back down to around 14-15. And guess what, your gonna run a 14.0 or maybe a 13.8 if you dont use launch control and perfect your launch
make sense? I know some people can be confusing on this site but this has been said a million times

its going to depend day to day anywhere in the world as to how much PSI you are pushing.
