I don't know. I think a nice N/A power curve is nice a predictable. If the N/A had more power and LSD stock, it would be a much better drift car. For out of the box slideways I would just say TII. LSD makes up for a lot. Sliding with opendiff is a pain in the ***, but I do it.

As for grip or drift.
Grip, Duh.

The only case I could think it would be faster is when one can't get grip; a'la Rally Cross in dirt or snow.

I think the N/A would be easier to master. Any slower car would be easier to master than a faster model. I never driven a TII, but I think it would be harder. I have a Stock N/A and I am drifting quite well in neighborhoods at 50mph. But I think if you could handle the TII, why not keep the power you need.

I drift my n/a alot before and is almost to easy. Ofcourse i made more power than stock. ALl you need to do if your really serious is get shorter gears so you can stay in your power band more. And no a turbo wont catch up if its a real tight road course were its mostly turns and not alot of streight.

Racing down hill is generealy faster because the car is going down on an angle which requires the engine to work as hard as going up hill. Drifting down hill is easier for less HP cars because when a drift is initated, the car because of the gravitational pull from going down hill, seems to pull the car side ways while drifting. This essentially makes the car easier to drift. by going up hill, your going against the hill, and drifting going up hill has the exact opposite effect of drifting down hill. Usually, to drift uphill, a higher hp car is better because it can over come the constant force of the car wanting to roll down eaiser because of driving the car on an uphill bank.
