Wow...in the haste of moving I sdeem to have let this get away from me. So....allow me to submit my rebutle...

Opak....you just took this and ran, didn't you? The purpose of my original statement was not at all to bash imports....simply the cars in a ridiculous movie. The scoop I was referring to was the green Mitsu's roof scoop and let's face it, all the cars in that movie had ridiculous wings. I will admit that I'm not a huge fan of ALL imports, but I do like many. So just sit back, calm down, and have a beer on me. Feel better?

No, an STi would not run circles around me. According to a glorious (and oh so unreliable) G-Tech, the Mustang should run mid 10s and pull just a tad over 1g on a skidpad with a set of Kuhmos on it.

Racing Rice...don't worry about a twin turbo kit...a well engineered single kit will give you more power than you can handle, be cheaper, and make tune ups and maintainance much easier. The only point to having a twin kit is to have staged turbos to try and get the boost down low as well as up top but most just promote turbo lag and there's only so much air you can cram through that tube. Try to find a copy of Corky Bell's "Maximum Boost" and read it before you make any decisions...it's the best book on turbo theory and installation I've ever seen, for any car.

And finally...Spoogenet...they cut that Z4 in half because Z4s look like penises.
