Default Who would win?

Ok say you have a 01 TA M6 with H/Cs and full bolts on with a 150shot of nitrous pushing around 600rwhp vs. a 01 TA M6 with H/Cs and a STS turbo system at 8psi pushing around 600rwhp. Who would win on the street? and who would win on the track? providing both are equal drivers.

the turbo car will hook better b/c power curve. the juice car would have more tq and a flatter power curve at the strip.

The turbo car would easily win when the baby bottle ran out.

In reality I would expect the nitrous car to win at the track (assuming he got traction). The turbo car would probably win on the street as he would be more likely to maintain traction due to smoother power delivery.

This is just my opinion (flame suit now on)

i would agree with v8hunter. but wouldnt the h/c and 150 shot car slightly edge out the turbo car because he doesnt have to worry bout turbo lag, and wouldnt the h/c and 150 shot be alot lighter than h/c and turbo? i dont know by how much. but it should be close.

Depends on who is driving either setup.

The nitrous car without a doubt, assuming everything else was equal and both peaked at 600 rwhp.

The nitrous car will have much more torque, therefore, it will have more hp under the curve. The STS car will have to build boost to reach 600 rwhp and have less hp under the curve.
