Approx. 13.896 give or take. I highly doubt u will post a quicker time then 14.5 sec. Thats all according 2 da 1/4 mile calculator on da web.
I remember a few posts here a while back sayin dat it takes approx 150hp to break into da 14's. Prolly high 14's at that.
So my original post is prolly more acurate - sorry 2 burst ya bubble, but dats da way da cookie crumbles.
Hey Gene!!!! Oi!! Over here!!... I remember u said dat your wagon had a pretty nice G200?? wit LSD, and u stated your 1/4 at approx '15 sec'. How much HP or BHP u reckon u were puttin out. Just 2 give this dude an idea on his 1/4 likeliness. Thnx.

180 rwhp will run into the 12's if you drive well and hve the rest set up properly. So a 14 is probable.
