st vs gt, something ive been thinking about Options

[brianforster]

ok so most people on here are quick to say "the gt is better"

well it is , stock.

but in my opinion, if you do not plan on doing a swap, it might be more beneficial to go for an st.

the 7afe has a bigger aftermarket it seems, I think I read somewhere that it responds better to boost , that could be just retarded so feel free to call me out.

I think the person who contributes to this the most is kwanza, Ive read his posts a lot and he has an ST and I want to say it could have probably beaten most of the GT's on this site.

So what do you all think?

In terms of not swapping, just keeping stock or maybe adding a turbocharger, what has the most potential with the most reliability as well

hard to say. I dunno how strong the 7a internals are, but i do know how strong the internals in the 5s. Not very. But I have noticed I usaully only see around 7psi on 7a's (correct me if I'm wrong) and I have seen 10psi by a couple people on 5s's.

Kwanza can beat most gt's on this site. But you have to look at his mods. They're all very basic, and do-able on a GT, with the exception of the header. I contribute a lot of his success of his times, by his talent to tune his car on his afc and those slicks help a bunch too. Not to try to put Kwanza down in any way, hell, everyone knows I'm the biggest kwanza nutswinger on this board.
