( Average is 15-20% in RWD cars )
Wow, bite my head off! Is it that hard to believe tha a 3.0 ltre with twin turbos at 12 psi might just possibly produce over 320bhp? Anyway, reiterating what Stangkilr said - I have only heard a few times of people saying mkiv's were underrated from the factory. I don't know much about that. What I do know is that mkiv's lost less than (<) 15% through the driveline. Also, take into account the miliage on these cars that dyno bone stock. I personally have seen a 299.3rwhp and 299.5rwtq BONE STOCK mkiv.

On a serious note, what is the official average good 1/4 mile time for a stock TT 6 speed Poopra? I wont ask on Suckraforums because there it is 13.2 with FDs running 14.5..........Thanks for the info
If you can dig up some old car and driver or motortrend mags from 1993 - I believe they test drove the mkiv and came up with a 4.6 0-60 and a 13.1 1/4 mile stock. The mkiv can break into 12s with slicks and a very good driver, though. Its been done. Yea, some of those guys on supraforums don't know what the hell they're talking about.

edit: the #s for the mkiv when they tested it might have been from a modified ecu and alittle upped boost, but then again toyota had mentioned that the powertrain was "frozen" for public sale. so who knows...

funny whenever i drive my fd i get some stupid *** questions..
here are some examples:

"Is that the car from the Fast and the Furious?"
"Is that a porsche?"

i agree on the supras, they are very nice cars, but still damn expensive!!

for me its:

"why is your car all shitty looking"
"is that a mustang"
"is that a probe"
"why is there a big drop vent in your hood"

Charlie your a funny guy.......

You did pull on me cept you forgot to mention that i was on pump gas @ 20psi with 4 people in the car (extra 600 pounds). probably trapping 105.

I did trap 117 on race gas @26psi last season.

Nice run though.

How about we go from a stop brother?

Excuses, excuses. Ever hear the saying "run what ya brung?" Charlie was also running pump gas but only 15psi of boost, 5 pounds less than you. So if anything, you had the advantage. Face it, you have a slow car, son. Vids will be up soon.

Jesus!!!! 26psi and only a trap of 117. You need to drive that thing more learn how to shift or get better tires or something. Is your car a 6speed or auto?

It's a 6spd... New Evo MR tranny he put in after his other one grenaded. This kid's got all the bells and whistles and still loses to an RX7 running 15psi through a tiny *** turbo.

your an idiot. end of story.

I drive an 03 evo. its neither a auto or 6 speed.

car spikes to 26psi and tapers to 20psi at redline.

guess 1.7 60' foots (on stock clutch) are no good and neither are 11.80 timeslips. i really do need to learn how to drive.

Why is he an idiot? There are plenty of Evos out there that are 6 speed.

Shouldn't somebody be loading up a parts truck right now instead of playing on the "interweb?"
