0-60 is a meaningless figure. Soon the only way to get a sub-3-second 0-60 will be to have tank treads on your car. Much more interesting will be the 1/4 mi time and speed with the SC.

Hey Mike. Wouldn't check this thread if I wasn't at least thinking about it

If I ever did, I'd look for the most torque and least HP gain for classing purposes. And I don't need a lot more power... I'd be fine with 370-380whp, and a reliable setup. Generally, the advice I am getting is to stay NA and aim for 350whp. I'm not sure that is attainable, however, so that's why I continue to follow this thread. That and the drama! haha

I could try and get a 0-60 video for you guys....

If I could get any traction in first or second, I bet it would be like low 4s

Alcohol/water mist is a great option also for on the spot cooling, there are a couple different ways to install/use it. Won't fix your specific problem but when your rolling with a boost its great.

I had a Supra with heart stopping power but I couldn't get the piece of **** to launch for the life me!

0-60 is a great way to compare mini vans or corollas though...seriously! Get a calculator...horsepower, weight, and some gear numbers and you can get a very close 0-60 before even jumping in the car.

Most true performance enthusiasts don't really care about 0-60 times. They care about 1/4 mile times, trap speeds, or lap times.

As was said above. 0-60 is kinda pointless. I guess its more of a measure of traction than acceleration these days haha. I'll try and see what happens. We hit 60 in second right?
