I wouldn't just flat out say N/A. It can also be the setup of the car. While the NA car is still going to have 300 hp peak what does the curve before the peak look like. The turbo car may have a better area under the curve. However the NA car will also be a lot lighter due to not having the turbo, intercooler and other things. If the power to weight ratio is the same. It all comes down to the power under the curve.

I could guarantee the turbo car will have a lot less off boost power, it would be a game of just trying to catch up.

I like ur answer. But no bench racing going on at all. 2 very knowledgeable people with 2 different answers. So if u wanna be "that guy" (a troll) please don't comment. It's simple A or B

If the turbo is set up right on 2step and anti lag, I'll take the turbo. It'll likely have better low end torque on boost.

This is the definition of bench racing.

No graphs to base an opinion off of.
No details of na setup and turbo setup.
This is really retarded and everybody participating is a dumbass..
















Good night.

I would say that whoever owns a 300whp turbo car and calls themselves a "racer" should calmly walk themselves into oncoming traffic.

But in all seriousness, if this is the "Lee" that used to live in Utah, you really are posting in the wrong place because you don't know **** about drag racing. And I can personally vouch for that so no troll here.
