240 Silvia vs. Tii RX-7??
Just wondering who will win here. My friend got a 240 with silvia engine (S13) with exhaust, intake, but I don't know how much boost he's hitting, the engine was freshly installed and no boost gauge yet. Also my other friend has a 88 Tii with free flowing 2.5" exhaust (no muffs or cats), all emissions controlling equipment taken out, and he's hitting 10PSI (and that was on a hot day).
My friend with the 240 says he's got 205 horses or more
Is that tru? I remember seeing a 240 at the track with the same S13 engine getting low 14's. TIA

Ok...Ive seen this going around, and its REALLY pissing me off.
There is NO SUCH THING as a "240 Silvia"
As for your question, Ive ridden in a SR20 powered 240 running 1.1bar and its not as fast as my TII running ~9 psi. BTW, the TII hit 215 RWHP on 9psi
EDIT: I should probably also add that the SR motor that is in this specific 240 has been ragged on an imense amount and seen its fair share of knock and 1+ bar boost runs.

by silvia motor i guess you mean an sr20det or something other than the ka
I think that it would be pretty close, like other guy said, and might come down to driver.

The SR20 swap also implies the S13 is running no cats, unless you can claim otherwise?
Both cars will be about equal.  At this stage, it's really driver's skill that's going to predict the winner; they are within 0.5 second of each other in a 1/4-mile drag race.
