barely edged out a turbo 240sx
well i was coming home from Baltimore and saw this riced out Nissan 240sx, he had the obligatory carbon fiber hood, huge coffee can muffler, retarded wing from a formula 1 race car, and then i noticed the gauges and wanted to see if he was turbo'd or just more rice, because i actually turbo'd a 89 240sx but i kept the stock 2.4, anyways that's a different story, i rolled into the gas, waited for the tranny to drop.... one gear .... two gears.... boost spooling then i hear him mash it but he was falling back fast, so i let off and he comes up beside me and we beep it off with me brake boosting, on the third beep we are dead even, then i hit the next gear and nose ahead and we stay there till a little after 100 when my trans shifts again and he comes rolling up on me and i let off............oh did i forget to mention this was in my 7700 lb 2007 f250 crew cab 4wd turbo diesel. HAHAHAHA. i talked to the guy after and he gave me props and said his tune was messed up, which i could tell because i could hear popping from his coffee can.

i think this guy would have got me if he had his tune dialed in. i heard some popping from his exhaust when he was on it real hard. but one thing i have learned the hard way is if your not in shape to race. DONT.

Probably, when my friend first put his motor in i was following him home in my moms 4 cylinder rav4 and we ran jus for fun and we held dead even, but after he got his tune done he could keep up with my 6.0 so not bad
