pretty close racing. Supercharger sounds like the one on a ford cobra mustang with that factory supercharger on it. Same as with the Ford lighting pickup too.

Whats a bone stock sti run in the 1/4 mi anyone know?

the fastest bone stock STi I've read about was 12.8... but everyone (magazines) rate it at 0-60mph=4.6...0-100mph=12.4...0-130mph=24.5 and the 1/4mile runs are at 13.2.. they didn't state the speed of that run but I would say 102mph ish (so for the 0-100mph looking at the speed and the trap.. our cars DIE in the high end)

^^^california speedway is a really slow track...my frist time there (and my first time at a track) with my last car, 04 wrx, my best time was a 15.084 @ 90.1 mph lol...i was stock....and i got that time when i was racing a stock 350z whom i was beating the whole time until the very end when he passed me....he ran a 14.96 @96.12 and he was a pretty "experienced" dragracer, as in, he had been MANY more times than me...and he actually told me he was impressed....my rxn time was 0.351 though, his was 0.079

but ya, havent been there in my STi but not sure how it'll run there

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are they on slicks? Why heat up the tires if not? Street tires are meant to have optimum adhesion at normal operating temps, heating them up in the box actually decreases traction.

I hated that "whining" sound it made (with the G)....I traded a 2000 Supercharged Buick GS with a 3.2 pulley (sounded better) to get my 07 STI...most of the people on the Buick boards know the supercharger is inferior to a Turbo....and alot of them are switching to Turbos.

Ya they were beasts for their time...for people lucky enough to have bought one and or kept it. 87/GN- Stock 13.4-- 13.6 times.....most of the guys there had the Regals GS"s SC- 97-04 Stock-14.7-15.0 times....with basic pulley changes and supporting mods ...high 12"s--- to low to mid 13"s.

The "GN" had a 3.8. Turbo
