Well, turbo lag shouldn't be an issue with either unless you don't know how to launch. Like I said, you launch an AWD from high rpms because they won't lose traction. That means that turbo will have plenty of exhaust gases to get it moving.

On that year WRX, the turbos dont kick in till about 4k RPM. The magazines described it as "wait till tomorrow turbo lag." Y'all should ride in one ha.

I launch my N/A Stratus at 3k rpms feathering the clutch when I want to race. He should be able to hit 4k rpms and dump the clutch with no issues at all. I know a guy with a 3000GT VR4, he can do 6k rpm clutch dumps and all he does is accelerate.

Bedsides poly motor mounts, still stock. However, it needs a tuneup (got the stuff) and a timing belt change. frown

3.0 SOHC 200hp/205ftlb (the reason for the high rpm launch). It has same hp as the GP GT, weighs 200lbs less, and has a manual tranny, so it puts more to the wheels. The Stratus with an auto is a dog, they're about 1 second slower in the quarter.
