ive driven both in performance vehicles but still find turbo versions more fun

Mail em to me, i'll host them all :)

:) The 200 is unbeleivable. Ive had the wheels spinning at over 100mph in 5th when its wet cos the boost comes in so hard! Its just impossible to drive unless its 100% dry! Ive spun it about 3 times now, when boost comes in mid corner! :)

The Impreza is a good bus, does everything well really. Looks ok, 2 doors, fast (0-60 in 4.5), handles well (wet and dry) and brakes well! Very impressed!

Ill post you the pics of all cars soon Daimo! ;)

U always did seem to have a lot of wonga :lol: When u gonna splash some down this was. How's the 200 running anyway? Oh oh, dude, can u email me some pictures of your old Corsa? And ur new nissan so i can put em in my database. I'll u2u u my email.

I think its all down to the capacity of the engine, a 3.0L Turbo @ 250BHP will probably mash a 2.0L N/A @ 250 BHP.

Ive had both now - Highish power N/A 2.0ltr corsa on throttle bodies and a Turboed 350bhp Nissan 200sx. To be honest I like em both but the Nissan was much easier to tune. For £3000 I took the 197bhp Nissan up to 300bhp+ for the same money I took the 170bhp Corsa to around the 210bhp mark. Like the corsa though, the Nissan became a little bit undriveable in anything but perfect conditions so I have purchased an Impreza P1 for the day to day drive! ;)

Yeah, about 3k higher :lol: But u could still feel the power of the na engine pulling and pulling where-as the turbo felt much smoother. The NA engine felt much more raw.

it had a 9k redline didnt it?

Did Lucky B's corsa rev much higher? Higher revving = take advantage of gearing, which may be why it felt faster?

Been in a 280bhp Turbo Corsa
And Luckys 250bhp Throttle bodied corsa.

Luckys was much much much faster than AP racings car, u could feel the power, yet it still wasn't scrabbling for grip.

I'd say 280bhp in a 2.0 Turbo Corsa is about the same as a 2.0 on throttle bodies running around 215bhp (Stu Smiths old one).

Turbo is more tunable for big power, also is a smoother delivery + u dont have to rag the tits off it to get the power.
