GTORX7 ran a 16.8 in his stock FB. I ran a 15.8 w/dellorto carb, RB intake and exhaust, and never got beat by a saturn, especially auto, or any stock civic (or with an exhaust)....

wel it depneds on the type of turbo, too many factors.

id say around 14.5 for a throw together turbo kit.

and around 10 seconds for a custom tuned drag only turbo kit.

carl.

14.5 is my goal

You should be going for more than a 14.5. GTORX7 ran a 14.6 in a TII with a N/A streetport motor and a haltech. He still had the stock exhaust manifold too!

To bad your to far away for a run....Saturn is slug from 2500 - 4200, but will walk you down in the 1/4 if 16.8 is all he has. 15.8 with yours? Stock Saturn can't beat it when it runs 15.9 with a really rotten '60 time.
