My best friend raced a turbo'ed TC in his stock 06 SI and they were side by side to about 100. Weird but I was in shock.

Going uphill with a passenger in my stock 05 beat a modded TC. The passenger wasn't a lightweight either...

As for those piece of shit, nex gen cavalier, cobalts... I was driving down the road and saw a garbage truck about a quarter mile down the road in the left hand lane. sooo, I decided to get in the right hand lane. Right before I pass the garbage truck a cobalt SS who was tailgating the truck cuts me off. Which.... well pissed me off. As we turn to get on the entrance ramp to the freeway I ride his ass so he floors it. At which point I actually had to let off the gas so I didn't rear end him.... when we get on the freeway I floor it again and proceed to blow the doors off his car. After which he fell out and rolled down the freeway and got smushed by the Garbage tuck...

TRD Supercharged with smaller pulley, relatively stock TC put down over 300 whp on race gas with AEM EMS tune. Not bad.

A stock tC attached to a NASA space shuttle can run/fly the 1/4mile faster than anyone here...nuff said.

Moral of the story, TC = cheesy. I don't understand why people even mess with FF cars if they want a performance oriented car. Just boggles me mind.
