Hogan has pictures and will provide them if you ask for them. He has a zip file of them. He has sent them to people and offered to show people the timeslips in person.

I didn't want to mention his name directly but anyhoo.
I have seen pics of Turbo's setup.
Now the question I ask you is: have you actually seen pics of the setup? ie.. the one in question here? Offering and doing are two different things. And pics of a turbo motor does not = a turbo'd maxima.
Do me a favor and delete XXX's name from your post. We all know who we are talking about here.
And all I'm asking is, if you believe someone else without pics, you shouldn't be asking for pics to believe someone else. That's all. You should either believe both to discount both. Not believe one and not the other.
He could be mocking XXXX but from where I stand, I've seen more proof from Turbo than XXXX.

Somone has pictures and will provide them if you ask for them. He has a zip file of them. He has sent them to people and offered to show people the timeslips in person.

I drop the hammer, and I can see that he has, too. I'm pulling on him a bit-nothing too drastic, half a car length, maybe. I'm coming up quick on 6800 rpm. I hit second, and keep going. His headlights are at my rear quarterpanel now, and as I shift into third, he starts pulling on me. By the time I'm halfway through third, he'd come up from a 3/4 car length to leading me (his) rear bumper to (my) front bumper-and was still going.
He said, "It's a 430." And took off. He was alone, by the way.
Well, that explains it. The GS looked and sounded stock-like it needed mods to beat me, huh?
Your opinions: How would I have fared against him with a quarter-tank of gas, and without two friends and assorted stereo equipment?
My car is mod-less. A stock 2k2 six-speed.
What do you guys think?

I've seen 2 GS400s and 1 GS 430 run at my track and they are no faster nor quicker than my lowly 4th gen. Usually I trap out higher than them too. I do have mods and they don't so obviously I'd get creamed if I didn't have any mods. I have yet to face one on the highway in my Max. I ran one when I had my 94 Z28 and I walked it easily from 60-130mph (~3 cars).

I always look for aggresive drivers to run. My exprience with the big luxury sedans are as follows.
LS430 - from a 40-65 punch, very close, he only pulled maybe two feet the whole time. (he was probably an auto)
Recently NEW BMW 750 - from a 55-80 punch, at the start his front wheels were at my door, by 80 his rear wheels were at my door. (this was in the only area I race, frontage roads off the toll way, very even roads, no side streets, and a straight line)
Get a Y-pipe and CAI, if that race was that close under those conditions, you should be fine with these mods.
A six speed 2K2, very nice car

What do you guys think?
I'm gonna go lay down. My head hurts from where that GS pimp-slapped me.

Don't mean to be a mag racer or anything, but in the June 2001 Motortrend, they got a 13.9 @ 103 mph STOCK. We have one almost fully modded 2k2 6-speed that beats that time. On the street anything can happen, and im not predicting winners, but id put my money on the lexus.
And btw, show me pics of your turbo setups
