Approx. 13.896 give or take. I highly doubt u will post a quicker time then 14.5 sec. Thats all according 2 da 1/4 mile calculator on da web.
I remember a few posts here a while back sayin dat it takes approx 150hp to break into da 14's. Prolly high 14's at that.
So my original post is prolly more acurate - sorry 2 burst ya bubble, but dats da way da cookie crumbles.
Hey Gene!!!! Oi!! Over here!!... I remember u said dat your wagon had a pretty nice G200?? wit LSD, and u stated your 1/4 at approx '15 sec'. How much HP or BHP u reckon u were puttin out. Just 2 give this dude an idea on his 1/4 likeliness. Thnx.

nah my wagon is mild worked g200, never had it on the road.

my old TG (in the mod gallery with all the airbrushing) ran a mid 15. and i would say it had less than 120rwhp

but with an rsm u can run a 1/4 mile whenever, wherever and not have to pay for it. they are pretty pricey to buy tho.

180 rwhp will run into the 12's if you drive well and hve the rest set up properly. So a 14 is probable.
