12 sec mki with nos...this i'd like to see....shaving 4 secs off is quite a feat in itself......

NOS sucks, direct wet shot, dry shot, est est. Doesn't matter, it plain sucks. You want some good speed out of an MK1 you don't need anything more than the stock super and intercooler. BUT, if you want to compete on a serious level with modern cars you need a major overhaul. Quick fix that I have planned is an S2000 engine, which fits right onto the mounts and all you really need to do is remove what little trunk space you do have, and a 28 PSI twin turbo. And look for a TOM's style air scoop for increased airflow. It makes a really good daily driver, since it'll still run smooth, have decent gas milage, and you wont be suffering any functionality. But, you'll also be making Mustangs, SI's, XRS', and even Evo's push to keep up

There, that's my opinion. Disregard or take heed as you see fit. =)

why would you go through all that work when you can get similar results out of an mk1.5
