I've been asking the seller about the car.

Me: So with a 5-speed swap your making 540hp? Wow, I guess those 5-speeds must have turbo's in them or something to make the engine produce more hp? what does this car do in the 1/4?
Seller: Please read the ovwerviw as to how the numbers are caculated.and the 1/4 mile is unknown.
Me: You do realize there is no way to gain horsepower buy doing a tranny swap? You will gain some torque to the wheels but it'll never go over the numbers the engine is rated at. Hp numbers and torque numbers will still be lower than what the engine is rated at because of driveline loss which, we loose alot of power through because of the AWD. So your saying with cold air intake, Greddy race lower drive pulleys, 4 mid infinity race cams, infinity 555cc injectors, upgraded fuel management system, and a 5mt swap you're making 540hp? And if the car reaches 100mph in 6.6 secs. your cutting lower than a 13sec 1/4(by alot)? Why would you do 0-60mph runs and 0-100mph runs but not do a 1/4?


Im still waiting for his responce.
