i cant remember if the cyclone is the s10 or the blazer turbo car. i always get the 2 mixed up.
either way though, the tta wins if both cars are stock

I'd really like to see that one.

Typhoon = Blazer
Cyclone/Syclone? = Pickup

I think it'd be pretty even, I'm sure the TTA is lighter but the Syclone has a 4.3 as opposed to a 3.8, plus AWD so it's probably killer off the line. But as far as how fast they actually are when it comes to numbers I really can't say i know.

Syclones stock run 4.9 0-60. Consistent too with their AWD and auto trans. I say Syclone over TTA.

I raced one from a roll though and beat it, off the line he woulda smoked me no doubt.

Own one, rode in the other. TTA at the end. Syclones are impressive 0-60 in stock form, but fall on their face afterward.

I wish i would have got a typhoon! Best of both worlds and they look sweet!
Ski machine and Drag machine. I watched one at Bermerton OMG a 1.76 60ft time consistantly! Average 13.0 1/4mi time. the only mod the guy had was that he adjusted his waste gate so the boost was around 15psi. And what size engine does the TTA have? V8 or V6?

not its not, same block, but different heads, cam(i think) crank and pistons

but to answer the question, the TTA is faster, i've seen 13.3's out of a stock TTA, i haven't heard a typhoon do that...
