Default Re: which cars can we beat, keep up with, smoke, or run from?!

I'm glad to see there is some interest in making these cars faster. As many of you may know our car has a fair amount of mods done to it and is raced on a regular basis. I would just like to clarify some things...

First, Stock we have 215HP and put down about 174 RWHP, add that to a 3200 curb weight and the only thing we are taking down are 15 second cars (Civics, Z4 2.5i, Solstice, Miata, etc.) These trap 93-94 mph speeds bone stock. There is not one person that can get this car to run a mid 14 stock, not one.

Second, These cars can be made to go faster. With the mods that we have done we've managed a 14.6 @ 96 MPH. We've put down 200RWHP and have kept the stock weight. With our setup we are much closer to beating GT's, Boxsters, but still no where near and M3. An M# is SRT6 territory. We have since added some ignition mods and an ECU tune and will be hoping for a 13.9-14.1.

Third, Please respect these cars for what they are. They are not drag strip monsters, they are GT road cars. An SRT6 is out of the box fast, the base and limited need a little help. We're shooting for 250RWHP for under 5K. With that power to weight ratio you can beat up on all the Stangs and Boxsters you want, and possibly an M3 or two.
