Was in a ST185. It was a 2nd gen with a CT20B nothing crazy making around 130kW i think he said. I rekon it was pretty slow for a 3sgte in general but it felt around what he said (130kW) . I dont know... always assumed a stock 3sgte still would been FAST! Maybe i have high standards for a turboed engine. He was able to slide the car about on roundabouts and keep the car in very good control i guess thats the perks on AWD. This is with poor tyres mind you.

so the moral of the story is: if if traction isn't an issue, don't bother going awd. otherwise, the extra drivetrain components (and the extra two wheels too btw) is just extra weight the engine has to power to get the car moving.
