Biggest suprise for me was the hpf2 v hpf2 left car definately gets away.

The SC cars will always have the edge lower down as its instant, no lag and i guess for tracking and quick street runs it makes it a better option - not a dig as love HPF stuff - it's just purely an observation based on the vids

They definitely have the throttle response. I think HPF needs to include a "brake boosting for dummies" manual with each turbo kit though...

the only reason boost takes a while is we have to start in 3rd gear vs 2nd gear for the VF cars and 3.91 gears that one of them had.... if we had traction we would start in the same gear and it would be much different...traction is the biggest problem. im off to get some drag radials soon lol
I understand that the top of 2nd won't hook up, but that doesn't mean you can't brake boost in 3rd.

Step 1: Floor the accelerator in 3rd
Step 1.5: hold your speed steady with your left foot riding the brake while boost builds
Step 2: lift your left foot off the brake on the 3rd honk and take off at full boost...

true but thats kinda cheating lol...no worries we are all friends and it was just for fun...while we were waiting for something we just decided to go do some runs...in mexico of course :)

Yeah, but the turbo cars make much more boost alot faster than the supercharged cars. So while the S/C cars may have boost a little quicker it's nowhere as much boost at the same rpm as the HPF cars make.
