Sorry to jack this thread, but i dont feel like creating yet another S2000 vs SRT4, Let me share my experience about an Srt4 ,so last night me and my girl decided to grab something to eat. I was doing 60+ mph when i saw this bright bluish light approaching us i slowed down to see what is it and saw its a Blue Srt, I was like cool looks like im getting into another race. At first we were waiting for each other to take the bait, I shifted to 3rd around 60+ mph again, he heard me downshifted so it was ON. I had the jump and was ahead by 1/2 a car @ and quickly shifted to 4th by that time the Srt4 caught up and we were dead even, I didnt pay much attention to what gear, and all I know is I hit before or @ redline at every gear until I shut down @ 134mph, the race was dead even in every gear, After I took the exit, I saw the same Blue Srt in front of me and honked he followed me and we stopped by at the diner place and had a lil chat giving each other props, He was a pretty cool guy and he said he had stage 1 and was ready to race his friends Evo, and bounced. Those neons are pretty fast , My friend who drives a an STi was raped by an Srt4 last week.

Remember higher elevation were about 7,000-8,000ft higher than sea level so i should be running 15.2 up here

Stock time suppose to be 14.2 at sea level. but some are better drivers than others

I cant see a full sec. The neon would not be that much faster, if any at all. The car is placing the air in the motor by the turbo, the motor does not have to work for the air
