Ran 0-60 in 6.8 sec

It's an estimate. There are many factors that can affect the relationship between 0-60 & 1/4 mile.

True that ^
My friend had a turbocharged car that was modified with higher boost, different injectors, etc. He ran a 14.6 at 104.5 MPH. I think when we tested 0-60 times on the GTech, the best we could get was like 5.6 seconds... Figure that one out

Still appreciate what you are trying to do in this thread.

Thanks, I agree with you. I'm looking forward to a few track days and autocrosses this coming summer. For a classy sedan, the TSX seems particularly adept at those kinds of "racing". Plus, they're a lot safer than the typical "drag" race -- that is, stoplight showdown.

My next mod will be lighter-weight wheels and summer tires. I think those will drop a tenth or two off and add even more grip than the Avon M550s. Plus, they'll be fun at the autocross/track days.
