[QUOTE="DemonSVT, post: 3052544, member: 435"] Also probably be about 40-45k in that 2 door Fairmont I bet. I also bet quite a few folks on this site were not even born when that car was new. :poke: A bare bones turbo 3L at 9-10psi traps 110-112. Nothing to sneeze at. That's a bone stock 3L engine and no traction. Not even one built to run boost. (i.e. forged pistons, etc) If you built a 3L it would make more then enough power to run with the top dogs. Easily! AWD would be the only thing to get this platform to put the power down. As is it suffers from the typical "Drives the wrong wheels" syndome. :( Then again it is a 4-door family touring car. [/QUOTE]
