Like LJZTT said, do some suspension work. Its easy and won't affect the reliablity of the car at all. Try lowing springs along with swaybars you will think your in a ferrari. try to get some adjustable shocks too if you can afford it. And go to your local SCCA solo Autocross events. The NA wasnt ment for QT times, for that matter the TT really wasnt either. Think about it. a straight line for 15 seconds vs. crazy twistys and zigzags for several 60 second plus runs. And maybe you could beat your friend through the twistys at this moment ;-). As i see it the QT is only for setting references and tuning
