so what's the meaning of this ? A/R 50 is what turbo ? that's the most important question


p/s : 1 more thing, in drag race, horsepower won't guarantee a victory. that's why in some cases vtec car with only 200whp ++ can beat 400whp turbo car
Why? Please explain? How come 400whp cannot win 200whp?

because there are many other factors that come into play in a race for example torque, traction, driver's shifting skills, etc etc.....
Mostly below 300m drag 20B vtec with some mod and slight moded MMC turbo either one of them can win one.Reason is that vtec got good 1st,2nd,3rdgear ratios...MMC standard lock 4wd gearbox is suck.it all depends onlaunching time.Thats why vtec car love to drag with turbo for 250-300m lol.However,if drag for 400m is another difference stories.:biggrin:

yeap...63t at 3rd to 4th gear will go like hell.This is bcoz the spool n the ratio match n the traction will stick to the tarmac.IMHO,the best final drive is from e1 n vr4rs.

This final drive is like motorcycle rear sprocket.vr4rs/e1 same final drive n got more teeth then e2 or e3.Got many teeth = lotsa pickup n torque!Driving a 4wd lock gearbox feel like the ratio too short bcoz of it close ratio gearbox.This close ratio gearbox is to prevent lots of rpm dropping when changing in every gear when drag.:biggrin:
