Bert I had no idea they trapped that high. What do they typically run mid to high 14s?

Yeah mid 14's. Ive been looking at SE turbos as a DD, will prolly do it affter this winter.
If they could hook they would be quicker. With some cold air and if you somehow managed a launch, you may surprise yourself.
IIRC, you have an SE because I recall you trying to get us to guess what car you had with a 2.0L turbo + paddles

Surprisingly, I didn't get the SE I got the limited so less suitable for the track but much more comfortable. I find that I never even use the paddle shifters because there is so much lag that by the time you hit it around redline it switches gears and you end up jumping two gears. I might play with it on saturday and see about getting the timing right for good redline shifts.
