there was a discussion on another forum of how fast someone's celica gts ran with the similar the "freak motor" theory. they also had a video, timeslips of low 14s etc. of course the video doesn't look at the engine bay nor prove that that engine has not been worked up to create much more power but look stock
a .8 second difference in the 14s is somewhere about a 50-60 hp differential all other things on the car being the same...either he has nitrous or someother modifications but a stock gsr with i/h/e will not push those numbers unless something else has been done
if you look at a crx si...it runs low 15s with a good driver stock...swap in the b16a1 (50-60 hp difference) it runs mid to low 14s on a car that weighs 600lb less than a gsr...heavier the car requires more power on an almost exponential scale
