I didn't see any times, but 100mph is about 13.4 with perfect traction, or 14.0 in a FWD car, hehe...

My wife likes the 3-door saturns, and I drive a 93' SL1 beater to work everyday that I paid $800 for 2 years ago.

The engine has done me good, but the interoir parts are just insanely nasty !!

Even the torque in my SL1 5-speed impressed me a little !! But it also helps my civic FEEL like an 11sec car after I only drive the saturn for a while, hehe...

#1 reason not to buy a saturn ??... ITS AMERICAN !!!
Sad enough, I'd feel better about turboing my 150K mile SL1 than my 50K mile ford focus, hehe... Fords are the worse, hehe ( minus powerstrokes and cobras )...

It CAN be done. Heres my buudy Joey (bagodonuts). I worked for him a few years back, good fellow cheap parts for Saturns. My fat *** is even in the Staff section hehe (Derek) We built a sub 13 sec turbo Saturn and let me tell you that thing rips and is a super sleeper http://6thplanetusedparts.com/accessories2.html

My Turbo Ford Escort has been treating me good.
They did come factory turbo'd in the 80's, the motors have'nt changed much, just more displacement, high compresstion and minus the turbo. But the OEM turbo manifolds still fit.

Anyway's here's the turbo saturn page

A turbo Saturn would be cool, something different so go for it.
Hmmm. I was with my friend Dave in his turbo LS and an older saturn 4dr tried to race us and it seemed to keep up alright for a bit. It was in the Boyertown area so I wonder if it was the same guy. That would be weird but I really doubt a saturn on the bottle lasted 8 years...
