Message	if you watch the dyno video, you can see why it doesnt run the quarter mile for shit. by the time it gets into the power, it's time to shift. their 1/8th mile time is probably comparable to a 4 cylinder cavalier. by then, the turbos come alive... but not in enough time, since they have to shift into 3rd. If they could run it in a 2 mile race, i'm SURE that car would shine. Now, i just scratch my head trying to figure out why the owner is going to get a roll cage and big brakes. It's not going to be good for anything but 3rd gear freeway pulls.
