Yes they Can be a fast Car Like in some of the mags BUT IT will take a big wallet to do it I mean a 2.0 to get 300HP out of yes it will be faster then most Other Cars out there BUT a 5.0 to get 500 Is MUCH MUCH EZer to do Less money to do so also.
Next they dont pick A fast 4cly most of the time a Honda Come on My brother has a Conquest/Starion same car they made then from 83-89 Well he is workin going on it and Well for the same he is spending about 2000 on it and It will be a MUCH faster car than it is now. He is not a rice and in fact most ricer poeple Dont like the Conquest. Why is that the car is a high 15's stock About the same speed as most Other Ricer cars BUT is much less to modify than many 4cly cars And it can be FAST. I think it might be partly to do with the Very Low Reving motor 5800 is Pushing it deep tone it has for a 4cly car, and the fact that it is Rear wheel drive might be part too. For $2,000 should be a good For a Low 13 in the 1/4.
