Which is Better F2 or 88mm Turbo
I already have the turbo but not on the car it currently has an Vortech X Trim only making 16.5 #'s of boost and it still makes over 1000rwhp but need more and I was wondering if the F2 would make more HP than the 88mm turbo?I am limited to either the F2 or 88mm turbo so anything else is out of the ? Just looking for input on these 2.Thanks

if its a precision PTE88 (medium frame, T4 or T6 exhaust housing) then the F2 would probably make more.
if it was a precision 88/98 cheater turbo then probably yes.

Sounds like you need to research the rules to figure out your options. A true 88mm can run 7.9-8.1's but I'm guessing your car is kind of heavy? What does the class run right now, 7.80's?

Here is a link to the rules http://pscaracing.com/Rules/rules_06_truestreet.html this year they only allow an 85mm turbo but there are talks of allowing an 88mm next year.

Rules sound a lot like NMRA Drag Radial.
You know who you should talk to? Brian @ Precision Turbo? He has personal experience with the F2, and also has a lot of experience with the NMRA 85 turbo crowd:

I've heard of NMRA Drag Radial dipping down to the 8.2's right now with the YSi at competition weight, and I think the fastest turbo guy went 8.2 as well. I think they might have allowed the 88mm this year but I don't follow NMRA that much anymore.

One of his teammates, Jason Lee, put an F2 on his car and went 7.82 @ 170 (letting off before the stripe) last weekend at Milan on a MT DR.
At the same event that 8seclt1 went his 8.16, Doyle (F1R) went a 8.10, and Kolivas (turbo) did too.
