If I had just 1 psi more, I would have won.

The temp gauge was maxed out on the 944, and the red light was on, so maybe it made 210whp in that race. It was still a VERY close race.

But no prob, I'm done with excuses.......Just another week or so (I hope) and my other 944 T will be ready. Ready for any STi from a 60 roll to 160 or more.
(I hope an STi is safe at 160 )

All it has is a slightly larger turbo (about the size of a small/medium 20g), and larger intake and exhaust. That's it.
2.5 vs 2.5
Not to be cocky, but if I lose to a STi from 60-160, it will only be because it has a larger turbo and at least 10psi MORE than I'll be running, which I'm told is impossible on a stock internal STi. My 944T has stock internals.
Please show me a STi that has trapped more than 120mph in the 1/4 on completely stock internals, and then I might have some competition from 60 up to 125 or so).
So Ming has the fastest STi locally?
Genya on here, (jason) with i beleive 390awhp and 440's awtq ran a 11.8 @ 121 i beleive. stock internals.

Topspeed's silver STi made 590 awhp it ran low 11's letting off @ 3/4's of the track, i beleive that car trapped high 120's and it was also stock block.

with 301awhp we trapped 111.

ming does not have the fastest STi locally, its probably the slowest out of the NON stock turbo STi's around. STi owners who are fast (most of them make over 500awhp) rarely come out, im working on one coming out to run boris/rudy/and possible even evolunchbox/phill
