Don't know what my quarter is but I can honestly say I have hit 122 MPH in short order and my 0-60 times running stock boost is around 8.7 seconds timed and mild exhaust haze. Whats really sad is when a diesel brick blows away a rice burner at the light and freeway entrance ramp! My timed 60 to 100 is 16 seconds, gotta love that diesel torque curve.

Want a good place to top out your brick in MN? Use I35 north of Forest Lake and begin your slowdown at the sign for the Wyoming exit. Gives you three miles of free area because it is fenced between directions with only a few turn arounds and no on/off ramps. Do NOT however use the area by the closed weigh station that is 1/2 mile north of the 35W/35E split as we do use this area for commercial vehicle enforcement.


Remember safe and sane, reasonable and prudent and wear your seatbelt.
