In the September issue of Car and Driver titled Fourgasm! They tested the JRSC SVTF with pectel and Borla exhaust and Vortech SVTF against Honda Civic,Acura RSX Type-S,Mitsu EVO,Subbie WRX,Mini Cooper S,etc.
Partial results are:
10th place: was the 2003 Jackson Racing Ford SVTF with 300hp and 230 lb-ft of torque.The car received a DNF "because the engine's electronic brain had not been perfectly calibrated to the blower."
8th Place: 2003 Vortech Engineering Ford SVTF with 270 hp and 197 lb-ft of torque.1/4 mile 14.9 sec @ 98 mph
2nd Place: 2001 AEM/Hasport Honda Civic with 349 hp and 239 lb-ft of torque.1/4 mile 14.3 sec @ 99 mph
1st Place: 2002 HKS USA Acura RSX Type-S with 304 hp and 265 lb-ft of torque.1/4 mile 15.3 sec @ 103 mph
Keep in mind these were all tuner cars brought by those companies to compete in this test so they are all highly modified.
