I'll suck up my pride and say good kill. I left this forum for a reason, too many BS stories.
Regardless of what people may think about me there's a couple misconceptions:
1) 91-93 3/S TT = 13.7 - 14.1 @ 99-101MPH and can cut 1.7-1.8 60'
2) 94-99 3/S TT = 13.4 - 13.7 @ 100-103MPH and can cut 1.7-1.8 60'
3) FULL turbo spool by 2,700 BONE STOCK. With just a
ing DP, I get 16PSI by 2,500-2,600 
There's a reason why it has 300+TQ @ 2,500RPMS.
4) There isn't many RWD/FWD cars on street tires (Yes, DRs and slicks are different) that can hang with a solid AWD launch
5) up the launch on this car, don't bother finishing the 1/4 mile
6) Stock turbos = TD04-9B (< 275CFM) = Very small turbos that can't even hold 11PSI to redline on this car due to the engine demand. Therefore, the powerband is ugly in the higher RPMS and the car generates most power in the lower RPMS. The low end grunt is impressive even in stock form.
Some things to consider:
You may have kicked the shit out of him. Who knows? If you did, you da man. However, you beat a stock MID to UPPER 13 second car from a dead stop and put HOW many car lengths. That would mean you were able to catch up to a AWD car that generates most of its power in the lower RPMS and basically 0wns the 1/8 mile and then put what, 4 car lenghts or so? I guess it could happen. If that was the case, by the end of the 1/4, u'd walk the piss away and have like 8+ car lenghts? That's a rough guess. I dunno what happened, so I won't speculate. Just please don't disregard this car's launching ability, it's stock 1/4 mile, or the fact that is has most of it's power in the lower gears (the 1/8 mile)
Also, who the said I was heavily modified? Last time I was here I had: stock turbos, stock clutch, a ing intake, BOV, a BC, DP with the remaining stock exhaust. I am not even BPU. I am like BPU-- (in Supra terms). I had under $400 in mods and was in the 12s, that's hardly 'modified'. I am a bit more modified right now but that's different.
Anyhow, sorry to offend anyone, I just heard my name and decided to at least give my impression considering I have oned a couple of these cars.
