Gutting out the car helps but that's not what gives it all the horses, but you can drop alot of extra weight. Where does 7000lbs come in ? The 3G can do 11's w/ street tires on a pair of Volks w/ this setup. I have hardly heard of 3G's running slicks on those boards but some do. Looks category well, i have heard loads of people talking about how schweet they look.

    Worst post ever. Images everywhere and you obviously can't pick up on sarcasm. You are bad at the internet in general.

    210 hp v6 fwd vs 200 hp 2.0 awd. Stock for stock the 3g gets owned. Then put the same boltons on each other and it gets worse.

    Show me a 3g with Volks on street tires run an 11. Street tires are not radials either.
