There were a few variations of that car as I recal. They made an AWD car (gs-x) but I don't think you could get that with a 'vert. Those in coupe form would run high 14's in the 1/4. The hot convertible was the GS-T and would run in the 15's somewhere. Not exactly fast. Figure about 200-220hp on the turbo cars. If the car is a GS, or RS, then no turbo. You can tell by the exhaust pipe, double tips = turbo if memory serves me.
In any event, with your mods he is a long way from keeping up. I suppose if you launch from second or third it may be close.
