Dont expect getting into the 13s if youve never been to the track before...dont worry so much about power as you need to worry about technique and with fwd i wouldnt worry about quarter mile too much

96 Celica gt 5 spd 218k intake, header, rear strutbar, new clutch...again :/02 Saab 9-5 silver Aero 5 speed 150k w/ 80k mile engine, new clutch, k&n intake, turbos xs bov92 sandstone grey 3000gt vr4 upgraded turbos, turboback exhaust, intake, mbc, walbro91 black 3000gt vr4 needs work stock turbos
I can only really speak from my own experience......I'm AWD so I'm not sure how much relevance this has. My 60' were terrible b/c I don't want to have to replace the clutch until at least next summer. I can only really get 2 or 3 good runs with sub 2.0 60' times before I can really start to smell it.


1994 ST205 WRC
120,000 km
150 dry compression on all 4........170 wet all 4
bone stock from top to bottom
stock wheels and 205/55/16 Goodyear Nordic winter tires....unstudded.
approximately 3,500 ft elevation ASL

Best time was 14.7
best mph was 95.4
with a ~ 2.0'ish 60 ft.

for reference my buddy's 02 Impreza w/ v7 STI swap traps ~97 w/ 3" downpipe / exhaust and a street tune at the same track.

I was pretty happy with being able to hang with an (essentially) stage 2 sti.

hope that helps.
