Post subject: | 911 Porsche Turbo vs. 89 Mirage Turbo |
I was on my way back home from school late last night, and was just cruising along on a long, two lane highway. I notice something coming up in my rear view mirror, and slow down to let it caught up. It comes rolling by me and I notice it's an old school Porsche 911. It was beautiful - white with black wheels and a huge wing on the back. I slowly speed up next to him, and we then approach a red light. He downshifts to slowly cruise to the light, and so I can hear his aftermarket exhaust and his turbo whizzing. It sounded mean. But I returned the favor, and he got to hear my open 3" downpipe. The light turned green and we both speed up to 65mph. He was from Florida, so I had to give him a warm welcome to Georgia. I downshifted first, to let him know I wanted to run. He then downshifted, and we both hit it. He instantly pulled half a car on me, but that was all. I stuck him, and slowly started pulling up on him. By the time I shifted it 4th, I was even with him. Midway through 4th I had half a car on him. Then we both let off. HAHA He had to turn off, and honked his horn at me, and I gave him a thumbs up. Yes, another worthy kill for the mighty 1.6L! |

Way to go, man! Hell yeah!!!!! My neighbor has three Porches itching to be pulled out of the garage, just waiting for the roads to be a little safer. I told him that I would have a Mirage GT to play with soon. Could be a kill-story in the making...hehehe....gave me hope. |

You expect us to believe that your 1.6 got you anywhere near a 911 Turbo? HAHAHA |

He said that he kept up. I'd buy that. Now if he said he had that Porsche by 10 car lengths the whole time....hahahaha....I'd go grab my gun and find him! |

Haha Yeah, so what does my motor being the 1.6 have to do with it? Too bad many people don't really understand what the 4G61T is capable of... I do believe it is very under-rated. Why would I make this up? I kept up and pulled by half a car. As restated before, I didn't win by bus lengths. Why don't you stop hating on the 1.6, and appreciate that I had a good run? |

i totally believe you, me and a buddy ran neck and neck with a i'd say about 85' 911 Carrera gt in a Mazdaspeed protege with only a mbc set 14lbs for mods! We were on our way to a club in lynchburg and ran him on 29. no BS stayed right beside him all the way to 130mph! |

I'd put bus lengths into a 911 turbo with my 1.6...try me. I've no doubt about him running an older 911. Good kill btw. |

Don't everyone jump on me at once......the 61t is essentially the same engine as the 63t, with different bores. I am really looking forward to playing with my 1.6 liter soon, and especially when I hear stories like Turbomirage89 just told. Bravo! |
