all losses im sure. an srt-4 will kick the little panties off an svt.  They are putting out about 60-70 more hp stock than a stock svt not to mention they are lighter. You can do the math.

They are only fast if the driver knows how to drive. Like I said in another post- The SRT-4 there never broke into the 14's that I saw as was the same for the WRX. Don't be afraid of the car be afraid of the driver.

I just checked your domain page; that's a nice Zetec you got there!

Definitely all driver... Like the time I posted a while back when I was neck and neck with one from 55+ and nobody believed me... Then he got a CAI on there and I have since put a heatshield and cleaned my intake manifolds out and the same thing happened, hung neck and neck with him... So basically I agree with the above statement "don't be afraid of the car, be afraid of the driver" because I know he has the faster car, but what I lack in power I make up for in my driving

With a 3L and all of those mods shouldnt you be close or over the SRT HP output?

no the SRT-4 puts out 250 lb ft of torque...even with a 3L (220 torque) it would be tough to match with Turbo and an exhaust system...you might get close, but probably not over, unless you use NOS out the ass.
