not saying there aren't, i'm comparing a stock VE and a stock DET, that's all, and i'd prefer a DET, i can quickly increase boost, etc..., etc.... etc.... to make it faster, dont have to worry about high compression like with a VE/VVL or whatever, that's why i was recommended not to boost a VE, atleast that what they told me not to do, i'm trying to compare apples to apples, not aplles to oranges....thats like saying there aren't DET's with GT28's or T4's with 600cc injector or whatever, that would eat your little VVL for breakfast, my neighbor has to S14 drift cars that i think he uses for autocross or whatever, he'll run some VVL's off the road

rode in a VE, just a sentra with a VE, was intially impressed, then rode in my det with a t25......became unimpressed with the VE, i think that constitutes as first-hand experience.....

like i stated previously, my DET w/ a T25 is now slow, so i'm upgrading in the spring...

Thats not first hand in my opinion. Have you ever really worked on one? Have you tested out many different things to see what netted the most whp?

Thats first hand.

I am not bashing you. Just trying to educate you. In FL we had many VE's in the upper 190-200+ whp range and I will tell you a well set up VE will run down a T-25 powered car. I have first hand experience with that

Its the tq that impresses you, take a ride in a vette or something with a big motor, and the det will be unimpressive

i understand, but you just said worked on it and tested out many different thing/setups.....i'm saying with any tweaking or testing, you drop a stock VE in let's say a P10 and drop a stock DET with stock boost in a P10 as well, top speed limits removed, rev limit to 7700rpm, you think the VE will run down the DET? I highly doubt it

now if you test that VE and put some cams, and play with it and tweak it, then yeah sure it will

oh most definitely, compared to my friend's rwd 5.0 mustang, my P10 is cute, but that VE is a little cuter, unimpressive...
