I dont take much part in the 6gc forums but spend time mostly viewing other peoples rides on this site..
So im keen on ur opinions on which car has better straight line performance, the Celi GT or the Mazda3 2.0l.. im curious because my friend has one and the specs are pretty similar. I think maybe my celi would have a slight edge with more low end torque, but the age difference in the cars might make a bit of a difference as well. Curious to know what u guys might think.. if u even care

Yeah, i was slightly quicker than a wrx off the lights but by the time i clicked into third he was surging ahead.. too bad the celi doesnt have more grunt in the higher rpms.
Also slightly off the subject, is a 3sge with vvt-i worth a swap from the 5sfe? or would turbo be a better option - performance and durability wise. |
