    Default S14 VS. TSI

    He was driving along beside me reving it and i was like what the hell dropped down a gear and I hear him drop down and catch tires a little bit he honks and its on like donkey kong I pull him by about a length,and I stayed there.Both cars are pretty stock from what I could tell of his I know mine has an ACT clutch and thats about it but it was a pretty good race.

    If it was a 2g he's got you by about 60 ft lbs of torque.

    Why would you waste your time buying an upgraded clutch for a stock KA?

    TSi was also front wheel drive turbo...
    If it doesn't fit force it. If it breaks it was meant to be upgraded!
    If it doesn't break you wern't driving hard enough!

    the car was a 95+ not sure looked like a pile of junk I didnt hear a turbo spool but i asked him if it was AWD and he said yea so I just assumed it was a TSI and had a turbo he just didnt hit it and I bought the car with the clutch but I do plan on building the motor and I really like the feel of the clutch

    1) forget crankwalk...it's overrated.
    2) Talon's are either ESi, TSi, or TSi AWD (if it was AWD then it was a TSi).
    3) If the car was completely stock you won't hear the T2Small spool.

    The first time I ran my old 95 TSi AWD (100% stock) I ran a low 15, but I don't know shit about what a stock ka will do so I can't really tell you how it stacks up.

    stock 240's can be driven into the high 15's if healthy and a decent driver behind the wheels. i really think it was an ESi or somone with a TSi sticker on their NA car though because a stock TSi would easily pull a stockish 240.
