02 tl-s VS 1990 VW Corrado
My friend from another state seems to think his 1990 VW Corrado will beat any acura/honda... even the NSX.
Claims to have "
Hydraulic Camshaft - 268°/260°
SNS chip
stage 4 ported/polished Super charger
65mm pulley
GTI intercooler
VR6 Clutch
9lbs Lightened flywheel
eurosport sway bars top and bottom
polished head
ported shortblock from 1.8 to 1.9
forged pistons
new lifters and valves
Bosal headers
''
Can his POS beat my 02 tl-s?

I'm not really familiar with VWs but "Stage 4 ported/polished SC" already sounds a bit scary. And he has cams, a s/c pulley, and it looks like he redid the whole head. His car is chipped too, and if he dyno tuned it, I am pretty sure he will smoke you. It looks like he would be pushing as much or even more to the wheels as you, and he's got a 5-speed I believe, and probably several hundred to a thousand pounds less weight than you.
He probably runs low 14s or high 13s, not good enough to outrun an NSX.
