usually those turbo type Rs throw on a thick headgasket to lower the compression. that PY Type R chismoe was talking about i saw him run @ the last 1320. he ran 14.44 4 times in a row with no traciton at all. hell i saw a guy in a stock type r run a 14.5. not impressive at all :thumbdown:thumbdown

Just putting a turbo on one doesnt make it fast...it takes good tuning the get the car running right!
He was there again last night running low 9s. Hell I guess you would have to have awd to get traction at Lakeland. I know I spin like hell there. I was running mid-low 9s in my Si.

What ever happened to that supercharged type r that was around a while ago that ran a little faster than stock.
