That's true :beer: , but I don't think the average tuner is gonna build one. No disrespect to Jason, of course. Just saying its quite a task to get a domestic (and the vast majority of import) 4-cylinder into the 12s. :(

Not a problem. Consider it applied:bash:

There is no doubt they are fun and they kick ass in the twisties, they just arent fast! Fast being a subjective term, but compared to what I am used to running even in a slalom, they are quick just not fast.

And Matt this still isnt about the CSVT, pay attention.:uh oh:

Ryan you are right not having 8 cylinders and a S/C doesnt make you slow.

It is the 14+ second quarter miles that make you slow:uh oh:

And the 8+ second 0-60 times that make you slow.

It doesnt mean they arent fun to drive:)

It just means they arent fast:shrug:

:lol:
