Modded GSL-SE VS. Acura TL and a Porsche Carrera Conv.

ok anyone own a new Acura TL or around an 04 Porsche Carrera Conv. and can tell me how they stack up to a GSL-SE?

Both of those model cars got owned tonight by Rotary Power baby!!!

The Acura I was just keeping up with when they hammered it a few times and well I was still there.
As for the Porsche it had dealer tags and the older 50ish man was in and out of traffic and ran up on my butt. I merged over and when I did not see a Turbo emblem I hammered mine and well after a few attempts of him trying to pass he took the merge lane all the way up. Guess he was not happy that a 85 Mazda was keeping on with him.
Well that made me feel good about my little car.

My HP I have been told should be in the 190-200 range, all NA!

my old man has a 05 TL, to tell you the truth the car is pretty quick and accelerates fast, when my TII was stock we raced, i got the jump on 3rd but i saw from the rear view mirror that he was relling me in, if the light wouldn't have change to red im pretty sure he would've pass me, but that was in the old days now he can't keep up at all. boost is magical lol.

rx7legend - yes they are a quick car and I know if I had the stock gsl-se motor that there would have been no way I could have kept up.
And yes I have pulled from some stock TII"s and ran a bit with some that were a bit modded. A friend came up with his FD and once we ran them and he was very impressed with my little car as I was not to far behind. He did not think the FB's could go those speeds.


My car is not a rocket nor is it the fastest NA rotary but it has power and makes a great daily driver. Keeps me happy and out of the turbo problems.

I was not thinking that.
But anyhow I am happy with the power but I have thought about going mega squirt so I could run the two injectors in the secondaries, loose the AFM, and maybe get a bit more power.
