I just got back from a test drive(just turned the rear rotors), and thought I'd get a rough 0-60 time, well it only turned 0-60 around 8 seconds.....BUT I couldn't get the clutch to hook up when I'd dump on it, so the car didn't really move much the first couple seconds, I'm pretty confident that with a proformance clutch & pressure plate, it would reach 0-60 in at least mid 6's.

If I get her rolling before I open her up she really moves, but I guess with the AWD haveing 4- 50 series tire gripping, the stock clutch just dosen't have what it takes, So once I wear this clutch out I'll have to opt for a heavy duty one.

Oh well, back to the drawing board( spoken like the true draftsman I am )
