I'm on a blown turbo running 10psi (bad thrust bearing), but last night I was messing with a new CL with gauges, exhaust, etc.. And we took off from a dig at a light, and he was no less then 1/2 car back til 80mph. I know at 10psi I'm probably only doing 350whp, but dang man... I was supprised, I almost got embarrased by a Honda and even tho I was at 10psi on a blown turbo, I would have never heard the end of it.

Turbo is being sent back for repair, and then finally i'll be able to pump some PSI thru it without the compressor hitting the housing!!!

I'll tell you what tho, that Acura was done right, not a rice machine. I wouldn't be supprised if it had nitrous, i thought i saw a pressure gauge on his pillar

blown turbos can ruin your day...why are you still driving, let alone racing on it? that just seems to be asking for trouble man...
