Default Gsr/Si Civic vs Grand Am?

This my ?? A guy at my job have a 90 Grand Am which he swaped a stock turbo motor in out of a turbo Grand Am w/ exhaust & intake. He want to run heads up. I have a 98 Gsr w/ intake. I also have a 91 Si Civic w/ B16:I,H,E & a spoon chipped: ecu. I know he have a turbo & 5spd. Which car do you think I have the best chance even though he's turbo @ the track. Yes track. Dont believe in street racing these days.

I have absolutely no idea they made a turbo Grand Am. :thinking: Can't be that fast. Your GS-R will probably take it.

GM made some turbo Grand Prix cars back in the early 90s ... with manual trannys even. I don't recall a turbo Grand Am in the line-up though.

GM has made some nice F/I vehicles along the way ... GNX, 3.8L turbo Trans Am, Grand Prix, Syclone, Typhoon, etc.

The Syclone was awesome. I forgot the #'s, but it put out some serious power.
