Alright so the car is kinda quick im thinking somewhere around a low 14 considering its still on the t-25... but the car keeps pulling on some really fast cars out here...like a 350z, Corvette (not z06), 2003 m3 from a 20-80mph roll...the m3 caught it and passed it by 90....but idk it just seems like the car pulls harder then most cars with a t-25...i checked it and it sure as hell is still a t-25...im maybe a t-28???

Im not all that educated on t-25's....i own a 1g and never had to hassle with them...LOL...but how would i know if its a t-28 or not....they still use the same housing dont they....
 
i cant see it pulling on RWD cars like that being a FWD car.
ya t-28 looks basicly the same ( i dont think it has the same housing tho? )
it can also be a b16g with a rotated compressor housing.. (but ya should be able to tell )
 
T-28s share the same housing as the T-25... performance-wise, the T-28 will pretty much run with the big16g. I don't think anything with the T-25 (t-2suck) will run with those other cars you mentioned ;)
 
Well i've taken some pretty fast cars with my t25 but they were all street races. The m3 is probably right but he will catch up very quick. c4/c5 corvette, i hung with one on the highway but he would have still destroyed me. 350z, i've had no problem walking all over them like little school girls ;)
 
Dave, I don't know how you can say FWD is a negative vs RWD from a roll? RWD has more of a drive train loss and traction isn't an issue with the T-25 while running from a roll.


I knocked out a few cars with my old T-25 after I had put all of the supporting mods for a bigger turbo on (everything -FMIC). Stang GT, Z28s, 350z :laugh:, RX8, lots of Honduhs :rolleyes: All from a roll though on the highway somewhere. Only car I really ever lined up with was a modified GSR. He had just as much wheel spin as me LOL, handed it to him :D
 
I don't see why with the supporting mods you wouldn't believe it would win against a standard Corvette and 350z. A non-Z06 corvette is equipped with a LS1 motor...

I stay up with Camaros w/ LS1, I get beat by a half a car length from a stop up to 100MPH with the following mods:
- Upper IC Piping
- Blitz BOV
- 11PSI boost
- 3" Turbo-back Exhaust
- Intake

Though I have AWD as a advantage, it also is a dissadvantage against LS1s since I lose power the higher I go, and LS1s just keep getting stronger and stronger. So I really don't see a problem not beating a Corvette with 4 extra pounds of boost, and a better top end than my car.

350zs are overrated vehicles. M3 would be the one I would least doubt, and he said himself he lost to it at 90MPH.

So I don't see why this person would come here and lie about it, perhaps the Corvette/350z drivers sucked.

If he is running a T28, he should have beat the M3 as well. T28s can get into the low 12s if all supporting mods are there. So I highly doubt he has another turbo.
 
Yes a t28 can get into low 12's but not with a fwd. I'm getting a pte 50 trim this summer but its going to be hard for me to get low 12's high 11's with a damn 50 trim let alone a t28.
