Any answers you get will also depend on driver ability & weather conditions.

thats very true,, 60' time plays a big part in your 1/4 mile time as well

[97Stallion]

well supposably 94-98 is about 17 secs flat and 99+ is about 16.5

[slvr2000stang]

Sounds about right Rob.

Rob, Kirk Arn't you glad we are lower than that now


I remember before I modded I was thoroughly disgruntled with the lack of speed, But I knew I could rebuild her. I would make her stronger, faster, improve handling, Improve her looks and feel then after I was thru with my Wife I went to work on my car DOOH!!!

[red herring]

i expected more out of them than that...i'm disappointed. Especially from a 3.8-3.9 litre. Mine is only 2.5 inline 6, wrx has a 2.5 flat 4 (although turbo charged) 350z only has a 3.5 litre and puts out some good numbers

v6 mustang wasnt built for speed unlike those cars you mentioned

Any car that was built without a turbo does extraordinarily well with one in comparison to a car that has a turbo stock because they're built differently and have to stay within more guidelines or criteria. Even mkiv supras do a hell of a lot better when changing to a better turbo or converting to single. Turbos that come stock in cars aren't comparable to aftermarket ones. Can't you figure out displacement with a turbo and it's psi? Find out what displacement a wrx would have with it's psi and see if you would still put down more than that. Especially once you get into sti territory which runs 13's and has a 2.0 or 2.5 litre.
