i'm running 10lbs of boost on open diff with falcon azenis and it still spins all the way through 2nd gear...i haven't had a chance to dyno it but the torque steer is a bitch in this car (i'm actually scared to track it at such high boost...i just turn it down to 6psi when i go)

I didn't make the comparison, the article did. I'm only stating what it says. Although I'd have to say that a comparison to the SRT-4 is inevitable.
