I know, that's what makes the supercharged GT version so laughable.

The celica in question had authentic TRD parts. Have you ever seen the prices on the authentic TRD wide body kit for the supra.

I rest my case.

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

Seriously though, wtf is with the 14s? With like 5k in engine mods in ANY import could net better than 14s.

lets remember that sport compact also tested the 2000 vortech si... lsd and 284 to the wheels, it only ran a 14.2? or the comptech stook with blower, that only rant like .2 secs faster with 100 extra whp. centrifugal blowers have no place on 4 cylinder 1/4 cars.
was it motor trend? that had the 'super four' challenge? rsx, si, stook, neon, etc... these cars cost a total avg of like 50k each, and the fastest one was only like a 13.2, each one boastign well over 200 whp, some into the 400 range.

lmao funniest shit i ever heard ! What do you think a Turbo is !

So your saying a Vortech Centrifugal SC on a integra that makes 298 hp and 198ftlbs has no place on a track ? I could put that car in themid 12's with supporting mods and only spend about 6k ! on everything ! You also have to remember the TEST DRIVERS might not be able to drive these types of cars !
