Ive thought of this.

TII if your drag racing or going in a straight line
N/A if your doing the twisties


S5 TII I thin is better then S4
And a GTUs is better then any S4 N/A (88 GTU, i dont like)

 

id love to have a tII, but right now it just wouldnt be practical. my n/a suits me perfect for a daily driver. i dont have the money to have a non reliable car. i wish i could have one of each.

 

Considering the TurboII is still underpowered in factory form (magazines back in 88 even said that with 100 extra hp it would be THE perfect car), I think the NA is lacking in the ***** department, despite being a great looking and handling fun car. The 87-88 T2 makes 182 hp and about 151 to the wheels. It is rare that bone stock TurboIIs run better than low 15s with average drivers. The best time I've ever seen out of an NA with intake, headers and exhaust is high 15s. Stock most of them run 16.5. That may have been competitive-ish 15 years ago but is pathetic now. So why is this even a question when the TurboII does EVERYTHING better than an NA -except- reliability and gas mileage? It you want those qualities so bad buy a Honda.

 

My N/A is about to receive a HKS T304 Turbo and Intercooler. And my exhaust shoots flames.
