Default Gen II racer 2.3 turbo ranger vs me

Last night I ran into a buddy of mine that has a 2.3 turbo swap in his 91 ranger. The motor is out of a 88 t-bird turbo coupe. The motor is stock except for a boost controller so that he can run 15 psi. We rolled of the stop light easy, we hit the throttle at about the same time, we stayed pretty even through 1st, he hit 2nd and I pulled a bit, then I hit 2nd and kept pulling. By 3rd, I had 1.5 to maby 2 cars on him. I was surprised, I really expected him to do better since that motor stock is supposed to make 190hp. Anyway, in a few months he should be able to get me, once he has put more money in it.
