Unless he's going to gut it out, he doesn't stand a chance. He'll basically have what equates to a lightly modded SI, without LSD.

Well I've raced two K20 swapped bubbles before. One was all motor and one was N20. The all motor could keep up from a roll, but from a dig it was raped. I beat the N20 by maybe half a car from a dig and he was trapping 6mph faster than me. Hope that helps.

Uhh trust me there is. I'm not saying it was a stock all motor K20. Had the heads cams, who knows what else. They were both running with slicks on the front. I can tell you that a K20 on something as light as a bubble with some juice is no joke. That thing was FLYING when it finally caught traction.

You probably won't have a problem unless he's gutted. From a roll it'll be closer.

Of course, on a built K20, and/or spraying. I was referring to a stock K20, or one with the mods the OP listed. Once you start actually going into them, much less adding FI, spray, etc, there's no doubt that they can get ugly.

Yeah, seems K20s love boost. If I would have been smart when I started my build, I would have done a K swap w/boost.
