The have potential yes. I think i read up on that chevy cobalt beating skylines but i think i remember that chevy was the only million dollor car company tuning a car in that competion, while all others were just tuning shops. So im sure they could through alot more money into to it. Now i dont know for sure so dont quote me haha. Just what i thought i remember reading, hell i dont even know if we are talking about the same thing. But i do know one thing the car im talking about had the worst paintjob ever..all rainbowness and nasty. Although it did kick some a--.

rudy your car is about a sec or less at a lower altitude. if u run around a 14.5 here its around high 13s at sea level. Its been confirmed. Like that miata guy from the elpasoracing site. He runs a 17.8 in el paso and at the shore he ran like a 16.9

Well first off somebody said that the altitiude does not matter when boosted. That is incorrect, the higher in altitude u are located the less oxygen there is in the air. It is true that in terms of volume your engine sucks up the same amount of air but at a higher altitude that air will contain less oxygen in it just like at sea level it will contain more oxygen. Oxygen is what burns the gas, less oxygen= less power. It is important to remmember that temperture will have an affect on engines on a hot day you will not runs as fast as you do on a cold day or at nighttime. All these things are rarely ever posted along with the 1/4 times, i think that is why so many ppl are confused. I am personaly quite elevated but so is every other car in my city so i dont care so much about times as beating other cars.
95 RS so far just a paintjob, rims suspension next then turbo...

My best time was 15.3 @ 3000 feet. I guess i can break 14 at lower altitude. h22s here run high 16.

Ok went again, was ok i guess. My car is running a bit better now. I only lost to a turbo prelude by like a car. I was tied with powered by hks aka rudy, beat a super charged saturn ion, stock acura integra type r, honda accord vtec. I let a kid win in an s10, he was with his dad and seemed excited about it so i decided to make his day and pretend i lost. It made me feel good.
