I get 15.9x in the 1/4 mile. Alright Tone whats the secret to 14.xx's? I am going to try the TOD disconnect and front drive shaft dissconnected this summer, and see what it will do. Maybe I should shed my 175lb speaker box in the back LOL!

14seconds is quick. Never invisioned the VX as a quarter miler...... Gut it, stuff in a hot *** small block an' a Borg Warner mixer, then back it with a 9" Ford rear............ low 10's mofo.............wacha think??? Yeah, that's why I bought this car. By the by, did I tell ya............It's got a f'n Hemi!!!!!!
Last time I remeber when someone asked this question I think he replied along the lines of "Come to MOAB to find out;pg;"Quote:

Edit: Besides the SC & PV he also has an interceptor (the tranny shift enhancer) Sucks it did not work on mine tho :(
I have all the above on mine as well and, although I haven't dyno'd or run on the track, I can tell you the power is extremely nice!Quote:

I have all of the above on mine too, but I am not running 14's I could shed some weight for sure but don't think I will get to the 14's. BTW, I remember that statement before, but it's pretty unlikely I will ever make it to MOAB. :( Is your track downhill? ;) Or is ours uphill? :confused: LOL:D
Used a Beltronics Vector fx2 for the numbers
0 to 60 7.5
1/4 mile 15.8 @ 87 mph
At low 14's at that point were you running the NOS? I read here somewhere you had a NOS at one point.Quote:

In my opinion NOS makes me very nervous, I've heard to many stories of blown engines.
uh... they already did! Check your Saab dealer... its the WRX with a pretty nosejob and nicer interior...Quote:

i was about to post the same reply ... and the 92X uses the 2.5 block instead of the 2.0 block, so there is a lot of potential left in the engine for modification.Quote:

Whew, a blast from the past, hahahaha....
Ya know, it has me thinking though. I wonder if AP updates and other mechanical mods would work on a Saabaru. Probably not so much NOW, since I believe GM is now overlord of Saab, or is it they are back in control of their own company again.... I don't recall. But, if they are still sticking with the same Sube guts and WRX mods work on it, you could have one sick arse Saab.
Oh, um.... VX.... 0-60..... in mine..... never. In DC traffic, you never get to 60. :p
I don't remember where I read it, but the current Saab started it's life as a Pontiac G6 - same factory, same chassis...Quote:
