No, they are slow, anyone who thinks their 2.5 SVT is fast is an idiot.
The only fast contours are 3L's and FI'd (or sprayed but thats ish FI)

i wouldn't even consider a 3L fast. here's how i break it down... 14's and low 15's is quick. high 13's and low 14's is very quick. high 12's and low 13's is fast. high 11's and low 12's is very fast. high 10's and low 11's are wicked (on the street). everything faster is just plain sick.

True.
Really I wouldn't expect to hear any my car beat 'x' car except from the 14 second and under crowd on here. I was just saying the rest is boring and we all could post my car beat this and this car all day long. Contours aren't really drag cars anyways.

i only consider a 3L fast when it has supporting mods, that is headers, catback, new MAF, New TB, etc.
And yea im with you, but i think anything over 13's is VERY fast, anything thats mid 12's and down is pretty sick.

And we're still slow for the most part. Even with the juice, I'm just "kinda fast."

your in the 13's right?
I know Owen who is running a 2.5L SVT with y-pipe and catback, P/S Alternator pullies, and some other junk is running like 14.0 flat with a 100 wet shot.

I haven't technically hit 13's yet. With 10 less WHP and 5 less WTQ, I did 14.4 @ 96 N/A. I'd like to think I can hit low 13's, maybe even a 12.9 with a 100-125 shot. We'll see what I end up doing.

i wouldn't even consider a 3L fast. here's how i break it down... 14's and low 15's is quick. high 13's and low 14's is very quick. high 12's and low 13's is fast. high 11's and low 12's is very fast. high 10's and low 11's are wicked (on the street). everything faster is just plain sick.
Well, what does Demon have for a 1/4 miles speed? VERY low 13's....didn't you just say that speed is fast? And didn't you say who thinks their svt is fast is an idiot?
