Me vs. Supra Turbo

So I am on my way home last night from a night out, I was about 2 minutes away from my house when this black Supra Turbo (about a 95 or 96) with a riced up exhaust is in stopped at the light 2 cars ahead of me. When traffic started moving, I quickly got on the gas, cut off a few innocent drivers and pulled up beside the supra. I then decided to show him a little VTEC roar so I floored it past him...the driver accelarated by didn't pay much attention to me. I cut off a few more cars and he was in hot pursuit.

It was just my luck that we both got stuck at a red light, head to head.... I look over at the driver, he was about the same age as me, I smiled and said "wanna go"? He shrugged his head like "Nah".....I decided to go anyways, I let him take off and quickly floored it. He sees me catching up and gets on the gas. We BLEW right past my house at around 140KPH and I kept up with him the whole way,always a car length behind, until he decided to shut it down and make a quick U-turn back home..


That was a good rush...

yea hmmm. well i'm not to sure it could be a turbo. either
1) it was a n/a
2) he was toyin with you
3) he was a bad driver
4) was runnin low boost (which coordinates with #2)

also how can you call his exhaust rice, those exhausts are what make it a BPU supra. basic performance upgrade which in turn makes it more powerful. so it's not rice, dont b so eager to use the term rice when its not

You cut off some innocent drivers just to race? That's just straight up irresponsible dog. Then you tell me that you beat a Supra. Come on now. Even the N/A ones are no slouches and the guy said he didn't wanna race yet you let him hear the VTEC roar by flying past him, that's a riceboy flyby. If anybody here is a riceboy it's you.

True about the exhaust....on the first generation Supra turbos...all you needed was a 2 1/2" straight pipe and you dropped almost a second, in an auto... [quote]Originally posted by KCPreki11:

On most turbocharged cars all it takes is a couple of simple mods to get big hp. Simple mods can give like 25-30 hp boosts. A downpipe, midpipe, and exhaust combo can net you like 50-100hp.
