Default supra vs s2000

sup guyz,
So i was talking to a friend of mine, we're still in high school, grade 11 soon. He wants a supra and is planning to put turbos, neons, bodykit, big ass enclosure for his subs, 18 inch rims.....etc you know ricerish style. Being said that, the supra(stock) is already pretty darn heavy already and adding those stuff would make it even heavier? say 3700lbs or more? so i was wondering if i make my car really light, lets say 2400-2500lbs and add a LOVEFAB turbo kit on it, plus light weight 17inch volks rims, do you think i could beat him on a curvy track? Of course i would be doing all sorts of relocation to make the weight distribution 50/50, because of the massive horsepower and the weight reduction, i might even put wider tires on the back because of the massive power.

Supra 500-600whp
S200 450-500whp

we need to charge people to post on these forums so school kids can't afford to do it. I hope this gets deleted so it doesnt interfere with search results.

so making it light and lots of horsepower will actually ruin the car and the ability to turn?

No, what they're saying is shaving off 400 pounds and buying a turbo kit so you can beat a riced-out Supra is an absurd reason to buy an S2000.

The Supra will win because his Visual Rating will be higher. Of course, you could then just reset your Xbox and start over.
