I hope I didn't violate anything, since this is not ZR-1, but I wanted some input. I am starting to see Callaway Twin Turbos coming into my humble price range. I know there are members that must have had or have these cars. I have never owned or drove a turboed car before & was curious of the driving performance.

1988 RPOB2K Performance

382 BHP @ 4000 RPM
562 Torque @ 2800 RPM
0-60 in 5 seconds
0-100 in 12.4 seconds
1/4 mile in 12.8 to 13.7 depends who you read.

I guess there are some pretty simple & effective performance mods with a low restriction exhaust & a Callaway "Wonderbar" (apparently, a less restrictive frame channel for Air Inlet). Anyway, what's it like to drive one of these cars with, not so much HP & a ton of Torque????? Thanks, Tim
