it's spelled "overrated". Besides, the type R isn't built with drag racing in mind, it's built for handling. It's a nice package for what it is.

i know this turbo type r really well, i saw the turbo go in and the front end put on and all that shit. The type r had bad rings before the turbo and then the problem was escalated by the turbo and even more by race related, they are slow and shady fuck that place. The stock block is no turbo block anyways, once the proper block is put in place that car will be the pinellas date raper. oh yea.....one more thing.....Fk race related... they do a great job on banners though...maybe they should change to a graphics shop.

WRX's arent drag cars either.. the bottom line is a stock Type R is faster than what that one looked like.. my car ran a 14,3 with the boost controller.. i am prolly mid to high 14's now.. closer to mid.. but still .. a turbo type R should have done better than that.. poor guy who owns that car mustve got ripped off with the install.

the car has had problems with the internals before the turbo and now they got worse...the owner admits that right now it couldnt even run with a taurus. Race him again in a few months and it will be a turbo type r.
