I wish i could post a vid from our local site to change your mind about boosted imports. A buddy's 350z made a 500+ cyclone look like it was standing still... From a roll!
You just have to respect a well boosted set up and built underdogs, not the factory crap with a BOV and some stickers. That my friend, i wont waste my time with.

For the record some import motors actually make torque, some more torque than hp naturally. My mazdaspeed protege on the stock weak *** turbo made 245whp and 263trq. Stock it made 157whp and 161trq. And is your mod list correct? With just a cam youre making 398whp?

Yeah I dont know **** about boosted imports because I dont care about them. its not worth me wasting my time learning about them. I have only lost to 4 imports. Fully built k24 on a 100 shot and guted, some black boosted honda, I dont remember exacly the #'s but they were high 300's, and some green boosted honda making 450hp gutted out. oh and one respectable sti wrx, It was a close race. I only lost by a car. I have race a **** load of turboed imports and I'm never impressed. When I have ask them what kind of number did they make the trq was always low. I also get the same excuse why they lost Boost leaks. not trying to tread jack but here one vid from a long time ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP5x00OCz_k&feature=plcp

My lawn mower makes that kind of Torque... Lets be more realistic.

I agree on the tq on some imports, usually you see high hp and low tq... But not all are as weak.

All this talk about import this and import that. Imports DO NOT make the tq that the V8's do. Due to the tq V8's put down, they usually will get the jump on imports. Most often in this case, you would have to reel in a V8 up top. From this video, the Nissan was probably at the same power level, but because of the tq from the T/A, he couldn't make up that distance. That's why the T/A kept pulling. Tq and power are never close on boosted 4cylinders. It will never happen. Back on topic...Nice kill.!!!
