What, and you've never heard of a ****ty setup? You think just because you buy a 35R you will magically make 700 hp? Doesn't work like that.

I've known a lot of big turbo setups that do not run well. Just because a car has a Black doesn't mean you'll make more power than you're buddies Green. Especially if you're talking 91 pump gas. The lower the octane, the more even the playing field when comparing a big turbo to a small one.

Your totally right, I forgot to mention ****ty setup, poorly matched part, poorly chosen mods paths, etc.

I was just trying to relay that Gt35 can be very fast and there was obviously something wrong with that setup or driver.

And I guess the guy I was quoting was saying the same as you. Just because you have a big turbo, doesnt necessarily mean your gonna have a fast car.

All of which is true.
