So I rode in a turbo'd civic si running 11pounds of boost, very quick and nice car. Rode in a stock evo VIII, a modded evo VIII with about 330 hp, and a stock gti 1.8t. All very nice rides.

Also watched a supra with 650 hp race a srt4 with 450 hp, the guy in the is a good driver and last week he ran a 6.7 115 1/8 mile. The supra won both time but the srt4 hung right in and didn't lose by much.

Man I need my 3sgte!

12 second cars feel a lot faster then 13 sec for some reason. 12's will really rock you

Cause the amount of additional power needed to go from 13 seconds to 12 seconds is pretty ridiculous...

The amount of additional hp may be significant to increase by a second depending on car. If it was so easy to drop a second, everyone would do it. The faster you get, the harder (really, more expensive) it is to drop time. You should know that.
