You have more chance of beating an 02 wrx than a 94 wrx with 200000 k's. You forget the 94 was light, had a huge turbo and was pretty much only bought by people dedicated to the idea of a turbo 4. Worst case scenario would be a 14.5 i'd say. |

Ok I'll throw this in for discussion, My mate wants to drag me in his VY Manual ute which came out with high performance diff standard. We have both been on the dyno and he has about 4 KW on me which probably means jack. Will he smoke me with such a weight difference or will i get better traction for the holeshot?

Is yours auto?
If it is you'll get smoked. If it's manual, you'll get beaten. |

it's a f**k wagon. it weighs HEAPS.
If we're talking 0-100 I doubt he'll stand a chance manual or auto. |

Are you talking supercharged S or nat atmo S? Cause a 15.4 is supercharged times... |

a 15.4 isnt supercharged times in STOCK form.....theyre not boosted enough.
They hit more of a higher 15's.....the ba N/A 6 beats it.

wheels magazine sometimes may spin alotta crap
dont always believe them...what it writes have proved to show itself quite different down the track in MANY cases one night at Caulder, 2 BA Xt's stock as your mums car rocked up, 1 hit a best of 15.6 and the other 15.7......a BA XR6 that has stifer suspension can put a couple more horses on the ground and should be capable of mid 15's.
