You're gonna make some people angry with that comment.

With some work, a 3sgte will run under 12 seconds.

Actually, I think "fast but not very fast" is a pretty good, albeit inherently non-descriptive, definition. Here is another way to put it: "The speed will surprise you the first time you turn the boost up to 14 or 15psi."

As for the sub 12 second club, that is going to be VERY difficult with a FWD car. RWD 3sgte's in MR2T cars take about 350-400whp to get into that range. With the traction issues in a FWD set-up, its going to take very wide sticky tires, a great suspension and more horsepower (and alot of money).

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
