Spend your money right and tune it and they run good. Here is my proof; 87 T Type,49 turbo.009 inj. 3 inch single shot,volt booster,xp fuel pump,and Reds chip. Against a 90 fwd Talon with a Buschur 16g,Hallman boost controller,Buschur fuel pump,stock exhaust with no cat. Raced twice,once from a roll and once from a stop. Care to guess which car won both times? So like everybody says tune,tune ,tune. The T Type was friend of mine and the Talon is my son's so I know exactly what was done to each of them. Not trying to start a war but just because you throw parts at a car doesn't mean anything. Total investment in the Talon including the price of the car{It wasn't running when he bought it} is< $2000.
$2000?? What was done to the car? A good 16G would cost you $695 new ,and about $500 used. So you did not have a AFC on the car or a bigger injector? Those things alone would cost you close to $500 used. That car without a fuel system is a is pretty much a stock car. The car probaly would be as fast with a 14b. So on it's best day it's a low 14 second car ,and that car beat a modded TR from a roll. Wow there has to be something wrong with your friend's car. A stock GN should give that car a good run for it's money.
