and for boost, its not how much you can pull, but if you can get the air fuel right you can make alot of power off 8psi, there is a forum with it on here that a guy actually explained it really well. i know a integra with 5 psi that it 260 to the wheels. and he only plans on running 8 psi. all it is with boost it a big math problem and getting air fuel ratio perfect.

Johnboy... the intelligent people know that boost is not a measure of power. Do not bother trying to explain it to those that do not already understand. It makes their heads explode.

Congrats on the win OP!!! but the thread should have been called TC driver disgrace to avoid this argument but im sure you original intention was just to get people to look at the thread because it said TC in the subject. That being said i would have no problem writing Corvette disgrace if i beat one in a race since it's supposed to be the superior car and the owner was bragging as such.
I guess you have never heard of run what you brung? I don't care who has better support!
My point was that there is an unfounded LNF superiority complex starting up here. I'm not seeing it. It's not like we're comparing a Ferrari to a Yugo. They both perform fairly similarly and seem to be tapped out when adding bolt-ons. TVS and bigger turbos are irrelevant to me in this argument.

i agree but what im saying is if the TC was still being produced and had more time for the aftermarket to produce more for it, it probably wouldn't be long before TC's would increase the gap between LSJ and LNF ET's and trap speeds on that list. So using that list to compare the differences is kind of irrelevant.

I really can't see why this turned into a huge debate . The SS/TC driver got what he deserved. Who cares if he can get a tune ..... he doesn't have one but automatically assumed he would beat this LSJ. Sounds like 50% of TC owners on this site who see the SS/SC as inferior .... I hope more get schooled.

agreed. as i said before any engine can potentially beat any other engine (within reason) with enough money and technology invested into it regardless of which is faster in stock form.

I don't know if the K04 has any more potential than it has already shown. Same with the M62. We will see though.

Good kill OP. Just my .02 cents. Why can't we just stop arguing over which car is better both of them are very good cars (and me being a LT owner trust me i would love to have either one of them). Because theres always a car out there thats faster than yours. So that being said we should stick together and not bash one another and beat all of the little ricers that are so "fast".

You claimed that the TC guys came in here to defend the TC. Some did but some SC guys agreed it would **** all over the sc with a custom tune.

You talked about ricer math, yet were the one doing the "well i can buy a used LSJ for 10k and mod it for less while a LNF costs 20k".... blah blah blah blah. You see what you did there? Would be like me claiming my Z28 was faster than a ZO6 cause i put spray on it and it came out cheaper than a Z06.

You really should step back from the keyboard and take a good perspective at what you post, cause your fanboiness really gets in the way of you logic.
How is that ricer math? That's just fact. If you sprayed your z28 and rolled on a z06 then yes your car would be faster for cheaper now wouldn't it?
I have no fanboyisim both motors are great feats IDC which one is faster with this or that mod, hands down bottom line you cannot buy a car for less money that compared/compares to either of them in their respective times and even now. Both are one of the best bang for your $ that you can get if you're not going to buy a honda (or other brand) shell and swap motors and boost, things like that.


Oh and 05Slowline... I wanna see this kill of you vs a supercharged + 150 shot camaro. Even if that car made 450whp only on boost a 150 shout would be like 250hp/310wtq on that boosted car.
************ my car runs this **** all day long on the mall strip I raped that camaro like it was going in reverse fk-a supercharged spraying camaro........................................
Incase it wasn't obvious, that sentence and my signature are a joke, making fun of all the people that come on here and proclaim "omg i bet this or that car and it was fully built turbodz out yo."

I didnt say it would not be faster or cheaper. I said the point you were trying to make was irrelevant. The price of the car or mods doesnt matter was my point. In the end, on the street/strip its run what you brung.

And no, your signature was not obvious. You have to remember this is the land of Ferrari/lamborghini and hyabusa kills in sigs.

So are you still telling this to him, or was it directed at me the entire time?
