Ok, can someone on this forum give me a definitive answer? Everywhere I've looked, (I've just about reached the end of the interwebz) hasn't found me a definate stock weight of a 5th or 6th gen hatch. ( I've got a 5th gen hatch) everywhere I've looked ranges anywhere from 2500 on the nose to 2750. 2500 seems to light, 2750 seems a bit much. My buddy has a MK5 GTI, (3100 lbs.) He SWEARS it will absolutely dominate a FWD swapped celica, 5th, or 6th gen. The specs say anywhere from 6.3 to 6.9 0-60, and 14.5 - 14.9 1/4 mile. If anyone who has swapped can give me accurate times, it would be SO appreciated. From what I've seen and read, a healthy 3SGTE swap will run high 13's. How's the roll-on performance? What have some of you that have swapped beaten? Its really killing me, someone help.

I'm just hoping if I ever do take it to the track, some falken azenis' deflated to about 20psi will hook up. I'm confident I can net high 13's. Maybe launch at 3k, I dunno. Hopefully that will minimize initial wheelspin, and they'll have enough grip to stop the spinning when boost hits.. I dunno. Damn, I wish they made cf hatches for 5th gens. Lexan is ridiculously expensive. Need to get weight off the back. No springs have a rate hard enough to prevent that squat. Ahhh well.. 63/37 weight distribution, yay. Wonder what kinda horsepower 12's takes for a 2600 lb car. Frustrating.
