do you know how hard it is to make a 10 sec FWD car? i have a 2001 Celica GTS making 545 WHP and its still not in the 10's thats because i was on a drag radial and not a slick and i havent a tranny to support it. once i finish the E153 conversion and put on slicks, im sure ill be in the 10's. its going to take alot to get a 5S-FE in that range. fully built internals, a medium sized turbo, fuel system to support, and engine management.
read up on my threads and Pressure2's threads. i think we will have the most information that you need. and ofcourse the stickies. dont get your hopes up on 10 seconds. that is not an easy feat to reach. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
