still one of the stronger turbo 4 cylinders to ever hit the market, and it started quite a trend of performance 4 cylinders...i'd say a pretty great car for its time.

I thought ralliartist was running in the 13's on a stock LSJ (part wise) just with driver mods and tunes, and maybe traction mods?

That's also a 2.4L solstice (LE5?). Not a LNF engine. The 2.4L I wouldn't doubt would be much easier to get into those numbers. That car has between 400-500rwhp.

In all the LNF will be better. We all know it. We probably just wont admit that we jumped the gun on the SC version. But for myself. I would rather have a SC car than a TC. But power wise, get ready SC's

I didn't jump the gun. I wanted the LSJ more than the LNF. :lol:

Yeah that was a 2.4l but its NA from the factory, LNF being turbo from the factory would make one think it would have stronger internals. But yeah the hahn 2.4 stage 4 had 390whp the last i saw.

There are Solstices in the 9's, but they aren't running I4's, lol.

Do yuo have any times from a road course from say SCAA racing or any other? Are you comparing stock vs. stock or mod vs mod?

Its never good being a guinea pig, thats why I wish I would of went back to my old root of 60s muscle cars...

Compared to a moped. :lol: And as far as a road course is concerned they were some of the lightest and best balanced stangs around yes. But one bad move on a drivers part adn they lost all their momentum.

Well, you can blame our "wonderful" enviromentalist hippie I-want-to-tell-you-how-to-live asshats and congress for the demise of supercharged production cars. ZR1 excepted of course;).

On topic, its cool. If I didn't already have the SC, I would be looking at one of these.
