my 05 vs about a 90 celica gt turbo

i work at a local napa and some kid from an advance come in for a optima battery tray he was in an about a 90 celica gt and i seen a fmic on it. i was just getting off work so i left out before he did i went down the road waiting for him wen he went by he started reving so i fell out behind him. he turned on a back road so i folowed as soon as i turned he tapped his roof and it was on. i dropped it back to 2nd and layed in it. i stayed on his *** the whole time he never pulled on me. i dont think he had it tuned good every time he shifted a big puff of black smoke came out. i just thought it was funny cause he spent all that money to go turbo and he couldnt pull on 05 vp with intake pulleys and exhaust

i have a lot of friends that have much nicer cars than i do and a lot comes down to how comfortable the driver is in the car and how hard he wants to push it. i can pull away on back roads against a 2nd gen turbo mr2 (runs 13s on the track) mostly because he wont stay fully on the throttle through turns and brakes to early. so props if you have the ***** to push your car and keep up with this guy but if your bullshitting then go out and drive some backroads and you could run with decent cars even with a d17

I don't drive a d17 anymore, I drive a car that will smoke most cars down back dirt roads. (AWD turbo)

Turbo celica has side mount, unless is is upgrade.
I'd say this guy did not have an intercoller, but it was an INTEROOLLER.

Well i agree with D17acivic its the matter of how far you are willing to push your car and how well you know it.

guys dont be hatin, whether it was ****ed up, driver was an idiot and didn't know how to drive, the point is he stuck on his ***. There is many things to consider when racing a turbo car, When my car was not tuned, loosing boost through the wg and ic piping kept blowing off i got beat by a v6 camaro, once i fixed that i beat a mustang gt with bolt ons, those things make a huge difference. Nice run man my friend has one of those celicas but n/a, it couldn't even get out of its own way even turbo i think it would be slow
