How much power will a MK4 supra need to take a 355whp Civic?

There's an old joke...

What do a 400 hp, 600 hp, and 800 hp Supra all have in common?

They all run 11s.

LOL. That is pretty damn true.

What's the weight difference? I think it's about 1500lbs, so 100 more hp wouldn't quite do it, I'd think. Though the Supra would still have an advantage over 130 I'd think.

What kind of civic? EG, EK? 1992-1995 civic's weighed in around 2000lbs. My 2000 Civic EX coupe weighs in at 2,300

He needs a new turbo.... the stock twins are garbage and he is pushing his luck at 450whp. I've seen too many people have the stock twins do major damage to their supras when they push them too far.

Whats the powerband look like on the civic? Is the civic on a bottle? Large single? It's impossible to judge how two cars will compare without looking at that. A laggy ass 355whp civic could very well get beaten my a 450whp supra...

All just depends on when the turbo spools on the civic. How much power it can really put down, maybe if he's running 225's all the way around and put it all down it could be close.

Well the civic's head is very built and it will build full boost in about 2500 rpm. It's a large T04E .63 trim.
