well with my current setup a relatively stock mustang or Z28 really is a walk in the park. A cobra or a ram-air or SS give me a good run for my money, but depending on the driver, I can run withem no problem.

PS, when I said cobra, I by no means meant a new SC car. I got my ass waxed by one of them badboys!

I can hang w/ 5.0's all day w/ 7psi.
A camaro? Mabey an auto...Those LS1's are not slow.
I beat a vet at the track (on video). I was on 14psi and race gas, turns out it was an auto

Dude, my sig says 13.9(5) at 103mph

That was on street tires, 14psi, 110 octane, prob around 240hp. 100* AZ heat. Its also a sedan in street trim

It trapped 105 when it was cold out.

tom would you like to share your input on what a ford focus is comparable to please?

GENERALLY, a Focus putting out 200 whp will reach a HIGH 90's trap...anywhere from 98 to possibly 100 mph. A Focus putting out around 240 whp will trap anywhere from 103 to 105 mph.
Remember, this is all generally. There are other factors that would effect e.t.s and speeds but GENERALLY, trap speeds will be around these.
As for Tom's kit and the 1/4, referring to one customer's car, and the engine being for the most part stock (maybe exhaust and possibly other minor mods), I've seen 13.6 @ 105. Oh and street tires

But I haven't seen any other times other than that. The guy was at I THINK 12 psi, putting down 237 whp and tq to match. And I think that's on race gas.
LS1's...you'll need to putting down close to 300 whp to compete with a STOCK LS1. And by that point, you better get some drag radials at least. The guy's generally correct with the "no replacement for displacement" concept. It's pretty obvious though...the more air you flow, the greater potential for power output.
Tom's turbo kit in terms of potential is quite high from what has been seen on this board. There's good, quality components in the kit. But you can't put an exact limit or whatever on the kit. You can't do that with any turbo setup.
Keep up the research. I know you're trying to get as much info as you can. Keep it up!

basically if you are looking for really low times then why ask? tom's is the best... the only way you could be faster is with a v8 conversion
