uhhh lol the gsx would annilate the gst simply because you can rev to 5-6 grand dump the clutch and be gone lol, ahh, the joys of AWD lol, but if you tried to do this with a GST you would do nothing but sit there and Spin the tires off the rims.. GST = FWD GSX = Fast lol but hey if your good at working the clutch you could beat a gsx, mabey, as long as it was a Automatic or the driver was a noob lmao.. and btw, i really dont see any need for a cold air intake because you have a intercooler... and both are already turbo

oh yeah heres a tip, get a nitrous bottle, have it filled with Co2 and have it rigged up to shoot CO2 into your intercooler, this will super cool the air going into your intercooler, giveing you more hp, btw only use this while dragging because it WILL run out, also this will not dammage your engine in any way

but by how many car lengths will the gsx win in the 1320. Alos wont the gst beat the gsx on the highway due to the weight difference.
Thanks for the reply

a gsx is only a little bit heavier than a gst so the gst would not be goin very much faster on the highway. probably barely noticeable.

What are you guys smoking? The reason that a GS-T would beat a GSX on the highway has nothing to do with weight. The GST has less friction getting power to the wheels (drivetrain loss).

Also, some people need to learn how to type (and/or speak english)... no offense

Average difference for stock DSms is half a second between the two. Some poeple get it down to 3-4 tenths behind. This is like 1 or 2 car lengths at most. At high HP though, the GSX can be SECONDS faster. Traction is key. And the difference between the two on the highway is negligible. The GSX is a bit heavier, and has slightly more drivetrain loss, but it is also geared lower. No one ever seems to mention that I have yet to lose to any FWD on the highway.

Any car will kill it's tranny if you pump enough HP/Torque thru it tho.

My 4G63 AWD is still stock, and I'm not worried about the transmission giving up, just the clutch burning out, so I try to refrain from hard launches



It's still hard to beat me from the lights tho
