Yah i was paying almost the same a month for the Acura RSX Type S i Killed at 70miles. Although my urge for raw speed is growing kinda wish i found my SHO before I leased the XF. Just drive that for awhile and wait to find a used evo/cobra or something. I can afford a much larger car payment but believe me after me having a car payment ever since i was able to drive. It gets old everything going to the car. I love the xf like one wise man said its 50 hp short of stardom. SO is the TT imo. now i will be selling the sho so if anyone is looking for a 50k 1gen SHO let know And save up for either a cobra/evo or maybe a srt-4 dependin how much they drop.

I would agree with that, hence the chip and pipes. My car is now running at around 280hp. I read that Kleeman stuff costs around $10k. I would be at 480+hp if I dumped that much cash into my car. I'm saving up for it already :wink:

I'm sorry, but I thought the timeslips were what you wanted. This is a very long thread, what was the other evidence you wanted. I dont really want to scan back through 10 pages

I can tell you that when my car was completely stock, I ran it in one autocross, before I started modding it. I came in 3rd behind a S2000 on sticky tires and I can't remeber what the other car was, but it was definately a light RWD car. The crossfire wasn't out 2 years ago, so I dont have any comparision, but maybe one will show up at an event soon. I was only .3 off the S2000 though. Our layouts are usually pretty high speed courses, taking the advantage from the RWD crowd.

I would like to see a real world driver comparision on a Road track, that tells more than what a car can do in a parking lot :wink:

I will admit that the TT brakes stop well for the first 2 times, then I usually get some Fade starting in.

You know im a huge fan of the XF. But we cant stop as quick as a z06
Even my old mach 1 matched the crossfire 60mph-0 stopping test. Gotta love brembos.

From motortrend the mach1 and the crossfire both came to a stop from 60 in 117 if remember correctly. And the z06 did it in 107 or 108 it was under 110. And the vortech mach 1 ran the quater in 11.8@117 slolomed at over 69 mph think it was 69.7 pulled way over .90 g's and had one short *** stopping distance. OH 0-60 was 3.8. Just some useless info for everyone to absorb.

wish there was a vortech crossfire............
pisses me off how they make superchargers for 1989 civic 1.6 dx motors, but not for a 3.2 liter german that would actually be fast with one.

Ingrish? I don't understand. Are you saying there are no TT's on the West Coast who are willing to race you? If so, you are wrong. Go up a couple of pages and you'll see at least one person who is willing.
