Default what would be quicker...

just wondering what people would say would be quicker...

escort mk4 (1.3 bonus 90)

1.6cvh (na) (been rebuilt about 8/10k miles ago, bottom and top end)
kent 22 cam with vernier
slight head work
ashley straight through exhaust with 4-2-1 manifold

totally stripped (no sound deadening etc) out with 6point cage

OR

escort mk4 (1.3 popular)

1.6 mfi turbo
exhaust (not sure which kind)
filter

full rs turbo kit and full interior

what do people think would be quicker?

i wouldnt say the turbos running 140, probly about 125/130 as its only running standard boost and it hasnt been rebuilt etc so most probs lost abit of performance through out its life..

and obviously mine weighs a fair bit less...

lets say mine is about 105bhp

and the other 130bhp

what do people reckon the weight of mine and his are?

as then can work out the power/weight

will be a good race if the turbo is std you have less bhp but yours is stripped out but i agree with the above go to a "private road"and have a race.

Do you want to add anything else?

The title of this thread should of been "what would be fast, please say mine"

His will have more power but more importantly shit loads more torque, so unless his weighs about 300kg more i recon you are going to get spanked like a ginger step child.
