Default Beat a turbo prelude today!

I was in my moms bone stock tahoe. It has 20s, and its lowered, but no performance mods. Anyway I pulled up to a prelude, lowered rims, exhaust, and who knows what else. Took off at the light, and all i could hear is his turbo, and was was passing him. Up till about 60 i had two trucks on him, and he was gaining, but we hit traffic and had to slow. Not bad for a turd of a Tahoe.

I was just kidding man. j/k = just kidding.

I got beat by a turboed integra in my '00 Camaro SS. I had him to the 1/8th mile and when his turbo finally spooled up it was all over with. He smoked me.

Good kill.

all i got to say is that his turbo was probably one of them fake ones that make the noise and also he didn't know how to drive. my fiancee has a 98 stock and i put money on it that it could run high 15's...
