That's my Blue Solstice 2.0 Turbo against Baja's Supercharged 2.4 Solstice.

I don't know where the hell you think Leonardo fits into this picture other than your imagination

@deepbluegxp cool, I didn't realize one was turbo'd.

Battle of the little dogs. Looks like a pretty close race with the turbo car slightly staying ahead at the end.

With the DDM setup the supercharger doesn't whine all the time. If you accelerate slowly the SC won't even kick in. If you step on it in any sort of an agressive manner it kicks in...

I can't see a blue one. They look like a black convertible and a grey coupe. Which is the turbo?

@huchimo01 Turbo lag is actually very minimal on the solstice GXP, even stock, at least in my experience, although I'm definitely not an expert. The fact that it is direct injected helps quite a bit.

First, a supercharger is tied directly to the engine, so when you give it the gas, power is instantaneous. A turbo has to spool up, which means there is almost, not always, but almost always some form of turbo lag. In some turbo-equipped cars you almost don't notice the turbo lag. My Solstice has quite a lot of mods, and even though there is lag, it is minimal. Also, a supercharger makes their noise pretty much all of the time, and a turbo only when it is being spooled up and under load.

@deepbluegxp is the supercharged solstice the DDM stage 1, 2, or 3? and what mods does the turbo have?

@RaeMachiavelli I was refering to the guy who post this. He said DiCaprio has a supercharged Soltice. I know that they only come in turbos.

For future reference: Superchargers whine and turbos whistle
