Turbo vs NA 7000ft

Here in mexico city we are at 7000ft over sea level.
Here the cars lose MANY horsepower! the NA are more punished than the turbos. You can feel when you go to sea level!! like if you have gained 20% or more power.

So here in mexico the 335i will be a pretty fast car compared with many NA cars. (M3, S4, CLK500 etc..) thats one of the main reason i am buying one!

I currently own a Seat Toledo 1.8t 180hp. with some mods about 220hp. i have compared to 06 330 and i win.... slightly but i win. I have the chance to race a Contour SVT 200hp here at 7000 ft and at sea level. At sea level the difference is minimal. But at 7000ft WOOOW 0 to 100mph my toledo has an advantage of 4 to 5 cars!

I love TURBOS!!!!:rocks:
