    i too have a turbo cavy. its a fun little car and i like racing sock/mostly stock v8 cars cause they expect the outcome. mine is a 99 z24 with a t3/t4, motor is stock and i have pulled a 13.7 out of it. it still needs tuned and im scared to launch it hard because the drivetrain is a clicking timebomb.

    Its still hard to accept. I know it's fast but still a cav. Like a 13 sec civic....not worth it.

    i have a mid 13 second cavy. its just great rolling up beside a stock v8 or a v8 car with a few mods and stomping them. dont get me wrong, im a mustang guy but its nice having a car like that (sleeper). this is not a bs story!!!!! i actually raced my buddys stock 03 cobra and we went from a dig. we raced 2 times and he missed 4th both times. i was actually about a fender ahead the whole time.
