This is quite probably one of the world's quickest street registered rotary cars. Given that the car does 8.8 @ 160mph and is the original steel bodywork.....
Watch out boys, if you see this guy in his street driven ride.... He's a local in Los Angeles....

I know that at the veags shoot out, the fvd had the same set up except they had the stage 4 turbos and the BLUE intake piping. they ran 11.5 @ 130 mph.

Yes our true stage 4 kit trapped at 130MPH, not bad eh?? 
The addition of the blue intake might have added .5-1MPH so maybe 129...Evan

PS-Alex, my doc asked if I have a loud car or am around them when he saw my hearing test results... All I could do was laugh
Sux though I can't run them anymore as he said it will only get worse if I do!!

I thought I would chime in here as well...
I hate to admit it, but I have to agree that picking up about 5mph in the quarter seems a lot less than most would expect.
Most stock X-50s have been tested numerous times in the very low 12s to high 11s at around 119-121mph. These cars are often times running 91 Octane. To compare these to Stage IV cars which are supposed to make approximately 600+hp on pump gas and presumably more on race gas (which is what many run in these cars), to a 450hp stock car you think you would see much more than 4-5mph with 150+ hp increase.
In comparison, I saw 2-3mph with an exhaust change on a Viper which only added about 35hp to the wheels. I saw a 13mph+ increase after adding about 200hp to the wheels. It looks like most dyno graphs of the stage IV kit yield about 155hp to the wheels so you would think you should see close to 130mph in the Porsche.
I know it is difficult if not impossible to compare improvements on 2 totally different cars, but the point I was trying to make was that for 155+hp at the wheels, it would be reasonable to assume that any car should pick up at least several mph in the 1/4 mile.
Just my $.02

PS-Our car in the shootout was a regular Level 4 which made around 600BHP and ran 130MPH in the 1/4, so it can be done...
