Just found one in town today and we exchanged revs. It will be on like donkey kong if I see it again.

I know the N/A ones are barely faster than a GT but what's the lower stage S/C run on average?

I didn't hear a S/C but my window was up but he revved to the moon and would bet it's n/a.

I'm just wondering if I should try it before I get my *cough* prescription *cough* filled or wait till I have meds.


My car ran like 12.8 corrected for D/A.

The S/C can run a mid-high 12 depending on the driver (stupid 20" wheels). The stock S281 3v will run a low 13 at best.

+1.

It depends on year too. The S281SC's had an HP increase in 07? (maybe 06??)

It was only 10 or 15 hp at the most if I remember correctly.

Thanks guys I'll just see if I can pick a fight I guess. No shame in losing to something that costs like 5 times as much.

High 12's would be a good race :)

05 was 400hp
06 was 435hp

I couldn't recall 100% myself, so I researched a tad more. :chug:
