            So 2080/115? That's 18lbs/hp. Not bad at all! Add a turbo! Fatty will fly.

                I'm pretty sure it makes more like 200-250 whp! Maybe more maybe less, but it's a lot more than 115.

                  Dang! Mind you, you have added a heck of a lot of stuff to it... it's a totally different animal now. I'm just glad you did it the smart way with a better suspension, brake, and wheel-set than before, ya know? Plus, I mean... in all honesty, it's still under 2100lbs. That was a great starting base for a lot of the other compact coupes, sedans, and hatches in the early 90s as well. You're still ahead of the game the way I see it. Even if you were to go AWD, I think you could still manage to stay under 23ish.

                      I'm at 1850 no back seat or back plastics and stock brakes. Really not that much heavier.

                            You have a death wish or something? Stock brakes with a b6t?
