tc's weigh more than that.

I've been waivering back and forth between super charger and turbo. But, I've always been a turbo fan and recently have been leaning more toward turbo. But man......for $1200.......I would snag that kit in a minute.

yup~

Curb wieght of a tC is around 2950 while the xB is 2400. A difference of more than 500lbs.

Not to ____ on anyones fire here, but my car was slower with the K&N Typhoon than it was stock. It did a best of 16.7 on a GTECH stock, best of 17.2 on a GTECH w/ the K&N Typhoon.

The guy that drove the tC against the intake/exhaust xB must have been drunk. Theres no way an xB with bolt-ons will take a tC with even SEMI equally skilled drivers. I have a friend that ran his 100% STOCK tC 5 speed @ NY Raceway and did 15.55@89mph.

I love my xB, however. I believe in my own heart that it is a much better looking vehicle and I would not trade it for a tC EVER.

As far as my boosted xB vs a stock or bolt-on tC... They can try if they want, but they have not a chance

I got my PE300 from an individual. They put it on their xB for a week and their parents bought them a new Mitsubishi Lancer EVO. Thats how I got it so cheap.

Ok, so how about a 1/4 mile time. I ran a 16.26 in the 1/8 on stock tires, with just an injen short ram intake. I'd like to think spending 3 large on a super charger would reduce that time. Are you an automatic? With my 19's on I had crazy wheel hop and ran a 10.6. Stock tires hopped a little but I got a much better 60ft time. I haven't ran it in the 1/4 mile yet, waiting on a few more items before I go back to racing it.

if it's taking him 10 seconds to finish the 1/8 mile, the 0-60 time is probably high 8s or low 9s.


unless you're talking about 0-60 foot times, then I'd guess 2.3-2.6, but that's just a guess.
