CrazyAndy, that program you have is excellent, fun to play with ...but it seems that cars are slower in it, then in real life...did you notice that? Also, I will ask him in a little while, so we'll know if its BS or not

First off, I think you'd be carrying a little more than 2800lbs- at least w/gas, full interior, etc- not sure what you're plans are, but let's just say 3000. So, if you have 420/450- I always average the two for accelaration estimates, so, 435- divide 3000 by 435 and you have 6.9- that's much better than a 993TT, 996TT, viper, etc... SO, assuming you can actually get most of the power to the ground w/good street tires, and that your tranny doesn't break, then you should be capable of sub 12's at the 1/4, and, I would predict somewhere in the 190's for top speed IF your gearing allowed it, OR, you could wind up to such incredible rpms as previoulsy mentioned. If actually trying to do this stuff, I would opt for a 968 trans if possible- you could get that w/LSD and several custom gears ($300/ea from Powerhaus II), as the normal 968 gearing is pretty short, and way too short for that kind of power- again, assuming it's all possible...
