Race him from a roll. That thing "should" have an uber amount of torque off the line...

FDs run mid 13s.

He might get you..but it will be close. On the top end you should catch up.

vr4s and FD have similar times.

got a new name

raced the vr4 about 30 mins ago and from a dead stop to 110 mph and shut down we raced on the highway he raped me off the line (AWD) but by the end of first i had my front bumper at his door the end of second i was bumper to bumper and then i had him by half a car to a car at the end of third.

im kinda scared to race my freinds taco becuase i was in the car when we raced the VR4 and the taco walked him off the line to about 80 or so so i dunno i think the taco will win no that ive raced the VR4 but well see

ps

thats my new FD

There's a guy over on www.yotatech.com with a 04 Tacoma 3.4L Supercharged auto tranny with the same basic mods as the truck you are going to race. On a 2.0 pulley he put down 287RWHP and 330 ft lbs. of torque. He ran a 14.24 @ 93.71mph 1/4 in High 4.

You should be fine stock, but the Supercharged Tacomas are quicker than people expect.
