I have posted a similar statement many times so I will just copy and paste it this time.
and this is a reponse to the typical, "once it is modded it will blow up everyday."
As always common sense is key but given some of the members arguing I will assume that common sense will be left out.
For that special someone I will make your replies for you.
Stupid ricer **** GTFO.
You car is a big pill of ****.
Go kill youself you're a watse.
As for the original question. Without knowing what is done to the car it is a mystery. It could be a bolt on car and run low 13's. It could be a running a 35R and all supporting mods and run low 10's. No one knows.

If part X breaks and a know good replacment part is 10.00 but some hack job POS part is 7.50 95% of DSM owners will go with the hacked part. It doesn't always have to be a money issue either. I have seen tons of DSM that are just half assed put together. A fuel pump rewire that isn't done with nice spade connectors, the correct size and length wire, soldered connections, and shrink wrapped connections. Nope why do that when we have 15 1ft lengths of left over wire and 300 butt connectors. Sure half of that wire I am using is speaker wire, but I need to get this done now. Then these stupid *** people are the FIRST to cry when there car ends up being a POS. Because of this everyone assumes that to have a good running DSM someone MUSt put at least 20K into one and this is untrue. I spent about 10K on my car including the purchase price and it has NEVER let me down. I daily drove it for a year and took it to CA twice. During that time the only problems I had were a broken battery cable, and my clutch master went out.
As for the OP his car probably had minimal mods. DSM can be fast but with minor bolt ons they are basically a quick car, nothing special.

I spent 1600.00 once and never looked back. I see kids spending 300-400 a pop on mystery trannies hoping they will hold up and after two or three they decide to go with a better option, like a Shep tranny. At that point they pay the same 1600 I did, but they also lost 300-400 for the other half assed trannies they bought.

Yes, I'm the moron who takes two posts to call someone a ***. You sure got me there boy! Better not tell this POS VW Bus it sucks, it'll hand you your *** on the track! There are plenty of "shitty" imports that will make your car look like a boat anchor. Hell, my car prolly would, and its trapping 110 in the 1/8th.
But what do I know, its an import and its OBVIOUSLY my only car.

What the hell does that VW bus prove?? Someone had a desire to make it a sleeper, and thats unique. Good for them.
At least they did something different, instead of being like every other import poseur *** who finds a piece of **** DSM and tries to make it fast. And then in the end you have a "fast", horrible sounding, unreliable piece of **** Mitsubishi that nobody respect anyway.
You'll never learn though.

Its a pile of **** mitsu that'll hand you your *** and take your money all the way to the bank. But a random ******** on the INTARNET thinks its a heap, so I should do what he says. Hrmm....

My car is a sleeper, because it makes almost triple the stock power, and the exterior is bone stock, the idle is only 200 rpms higher than stock and I dont have a massive buzz cannon on the back.

You are on LS1Tech. I didn't go over to DSMfags.com and say your car was shitty. You came here, to a forum thats not about your car, to try and get respect for it. I think its a piece of ****, as does anyone else with the slightest hint of taste in automobiles. So do everyone a facor and
if yo don't like it, because we'd all be better off.

I'm not claiming that DSMs are superior
I'm not claiming that 4 cylinders are superior to V8s
However, you seem to think I am. You're pretty much making all the same arguments that I am, except you think that insulting my DSM will hurt my feelings. Let me clue you in...
My first car in HS was a 71 Chevy Impalla. Every car my family owned for the first 24 years of my life was a chevy with a V6 or V8 in it, and it wasnt until 2002 that my parents actually bought a Subaru instead of a Chevy. The DSM was the first non chevy car I've ever owned, and I actually have a 73 Duster right now. My dream car is a 1968 RS Camaro, just like the one in Better off Dead.
But I'm just an ignorant ricer. WTF do I know. I just like to do something different now and again, and suddenly I'm an ignorant ricer and the last 30 years of my life were spent preparing me for the moment that I had a DSM and you could call me a ricer. Oh, my feelings are hurt.
Idiot child. You do not own a WS6, and you have no comprehension about the topic material at hand other than test driving an AWD import that wasnt even a DSM and claim that feathering the clutch for 500 feet was needed.
Thats as retarded as telling a network engineer that their token ring is lost in the ethernet somewhere, and you'll have to format the interface to find it. Get AIDS.

Actually what Xak said is pretty dead on. I dont begrudge anyone defending themselfs against some ******* ripping on them. I have the guy on ignore list, so I only see half the argument. But Xak's hardly trolling with comments like "V8s do rule the land in drag racing and have for years". So the old "what do you expect" argument is dead in the water.
Is it pointless to argue with whathisSNthistime? Yes.
Can you begrude someone for doing it? Not really.
Ignore list is a beautiful thing.
