I hate to tell you but the new SVT Cobra hasn't seen better than the 13s in the 1/4 from anyone that has tested it. Guess what, the STi runs 13s stock as well, so in the 1/4 mile it will come down to the driver. You can't argue with me that the STi will kill the SVT in the turns. The damn thing drives like a truck.
Also, on the Neon handling issue, the SRT-4 has been kicking ass in SCCA rally events in its class. For a FWD car it can handle pretty well. It does need an LSD, some better springs, and struts.
