ha that bad, i thought these cars were faster then most cars its age

[EuroTour]

Not cars with turbos!

[1BadCSVT]

Not cars with turbos and Awd!

GST = FWD........GSX = AWD. Just a little FYI.


Also to answer the orginal question, no your SVT will not beat a slightly moded GST. Your only hope is that with his mods he has a sh*tty tune and that the 7-bolt crank walks like a mother f*cker, then maybe you will win. Don't get me wrong the SVT's are semi quick, but they are by far not the fastest thing on the street.

well look at it this way. my friend has a tsi talon. we put a 16g big turbo on it with a vta bov, so his computer is freaking out all the time about lost metered air, and an after market exhaust, and its right the with my 3L yes my 3L is only 9:1 static compression but hes running at 10 psi. a front mount and solid piping will make a big difference. unless he doesnt know how to drive the thing HE WILL WALK YOU! especially if its AWD and not like my friends FWD.

EDIT: rob you beat me to it..... but my friends is a 7 bolt and its fine does it help that it only has 56k on it lol. yes 7 bolts are worse but were trying to make a 7 bolt tsi talon haul so we are the only ones that dont do a 6 bolt swap.

P.S. to reiterate everything........................................ ....HE WILL WALK YOU LIKE A POODLE!!!!!!

The two cars are fairly similar stock perfomance wise. But all those cars need is a boost controler and it is over. Just pray that something breaks while he is driving it if you want to win

Watched a GSX scatter its 7 bolt all over the 1/4 mile once..........was an amazing thing. Guy claims his boost guage hit 28#...........not sure about that one considering stock turbo.

[shavedsvt]

stock turbo peaks at i think 12 psi IIRC

yeah, but thats not the stock turbo. Thats the turbo I was running on my contour.

You'll lose badly.
