Those achieva supreme's are monsters off the line.
3SGTE swapped Celicas are pretty damn fast. Bottom line.

I know Bboy had some street racing action and reported no losses....and im confident that the swap can outrun just about any stock GST-GSX eclipse, WRX, Mustang GT's, Camaros (except maybe an SS), S2000 and just about any other stock Honda you can throw at it, a close run against an EVO, etc.....it could definately hold its own against alot of quick cars based on 1/4 mile figures and my own seat-of-the-pants evaluation.

However, that all totally depends on the driver. You get a bad driver behind the wheel of a fast car and a great driver behind the wheel of a slower car, you can be suprised as to what might unfold.

Anybody have some good kill stories I don't know about??

this is true. in my 7afte set up running 12 psi i beat a evo smile.gif i live in NJ and i think we are the only state left with circles and were i live theirs a ton, i was on my way home from my Girl friends one night and i was coming around a circle and an evo pulled up next to me so i was like, ok lets see what this thing could do, i was expecting to get my A$$ handed to me because i saw he had an after market front mount and exhaust. right after the circle is a small bridge that goes up hill, so i flored it and because my cars an auto it dropped down to second i guess and flew over the hill doin like 50-60, i guess he didnt down shift fast enuf or didnt go in to a low enuf gear so i ended up passing him over the bridge and carried the momentum down the hill i hit about 80MPH and he was about 2 car lenghts behind me the hole time the the road went back to one lane and i kept flooring it and he couldnt keep up. he must have been a horrible driver.
