is AWD loss that much? I always thought they lost about 18-22%, 'cause if I'm losing 30% and still getting 335 to the wheels, I may be they first to do a RWD EVO conversion!

No idea what an Evo loses, justtelling you what my Subaru lost. and I have seen a stock 1.8T go 14.77 and a stock R32 go 14.51 at Lebanon onthe same night. Obviously it also depends alot on the driver, but I think the cars are meant for different things. The R32 wasn't designed to 1/4 mile, it is an auto X/road racing car. AWD is not the best setup for a 1/4 mile. It is too hard to launch unless you get enough power to slip all 4 wheels. Besides I couldn't spend that kind of money and get spanked by a stock $25K Forester turbo full of groceries.
