Default b18b1 turbo vs type r

same 98 cx h/b.. no ac.. no power nothing..

6 grand including price of the engine into both cars

b18b1 turbo on one side..
type r on the other

both built to their maximum potential from $6k

same suspension mods.. GC coilovers KYB agx shocks.. all strut bars all tie bars big sway bars..

Too many variables.

Turbo sizing, total power output for both engines, power curves, etc.

This question can not be definatively answered.

You will also be limited by how much power you can get to the ground without an LSD.

Also courses vary. I've beaten turboed cars on courses, and vice versa because of our power or lack of power.
