which one we have several.

so how "fast our cars are" isn't really a usable statement.

Our Miata (325 whp) has won Mod RWD in the last 4-5 events wha have run in the redline time attack series. the supra has taken 1st 2nd and 3rd in a few events in street tire class, but the owner refuses to make the mods we need to go faster (he wants to keep it looking like a street car)

Would either "run a 9 sec 1/4 mile"? No. Were they designed to? No
are they still faster around a circuit than most 500+ whp cars, yep!
Fast is a relative term.
I have tuned several 600+ whp subaru's and evos
none of which were designed to see a drag strip.

None of these cars were meant to 1/4 mile. It just shows how smart someone is to be able to produce the #'s and to actually get the car set-up properly to get it down the track. Anyone can make 1000+ hp. The trick is getting it to stick to the ground.

I've heard great things about the Snow stage II. Don't let people talk you into a more expensive kit with features you don't really need.
