i'm wondering about the integrity of his measurements. How did you measure your 0-60 time? Just floor it and count out loud to yourself 1 -2 -3 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh -4.

even if it was a passport timer or other slap on dash gizmo it has to be properly calibrated to the car.

I doubt you hit it, but it is possible with more mods and a good suspension and setup for a good launch.

Thanks for all your thoughts. Sorry I neglected my own post for a few days: I've got 6 kids. I want to clarify several things:

1) I know my timing had to be wrong. It was a very crude measure. I should have been more clear on that. I was just posing a hypothetical question to get all this great info on 0-60 times and what it takes to get what times. It certainly did that, and thanks to all who posted.

2) AFM - comes from posting when I should have been sleeping. I was an AutoMeter boost guage, of course. Just a typo. I realized it the next morning and I've been cringing since.

3) I have no idea who built this car or what they did to it, or what an accurate timing would show, but it's stinking fast compared to my other car, a stock supra. I will get it on my friend's dyno this summer and update this post then. If that comes out well, I'll get someone to help me time it accurately.

Thanks again.
