600whp - 600wtq at 30 PSI
What do you mean wrong ..... almost every single FWD car have a loss of 15% from crank power, now tell me how much loss a RWD or AWD have.... not to mention when they are both racing on a Rolling fwd cars accelerates faster of course cars needs to be close on HP. obviously if you have 200 HP and the other 400 depending on weight you have nothing to do.

yes sir we rwd run faster with less hp.. 474.8whp/396.6wtq @ 25psi with this power you have a mid 11 sec car... as to if it were rwd you would have a low 10sec car.. and hold on you might get luky 9:90's

If i remember correctly TBK Performance Recently with Less HP did 11.6 Sec in 1/4 Mile also having less stuff done to the engine than me, maybe if i run slicks and 30+ PSI how i want to i could be in the 11 Sec flat or high 10s...
But either way having a Street legal 11 sec car or High 10s Sec car on the street is simply INSANE !!! Either way im not planing on racing my car when finish, is just for weekends fun thats all.
This is the videos i found of them, even tho they have removed all of the other good videos.

Once again with good tires you dont have anything to envy any AWD or RWD cars atleast on the lauching in 1/4 mile. Also People with a Certain High Amount of HP dont race from a Dig they do Rolling races no matter if they are FWD, AWD or RWD you all should know about this already...

if you only race from a roll then that just means you cant drive. I hate that when ppl talk s*** saying there car is way better and they have the mad driving skillz but they wont race you from a dig. There is no skills at all need to race from a dig.
but good tires and a suspension setup wont cure torque steer and thats what kills high HP FWD cars.
but regardless RWD will always be better, not trying to be a hater against FWD but the only thing FWD is good for to drive in the snow if you live in an area that has it.
id take a 300whp RWD car over a 500whp FWD car anyday.
but that is one badass 323 though, keep your eyes open, there is a 60m ktec throttle body in the works.

like i said, i bought the shell, no engine included. the previous owner pulled out the engine

So you purchased the car that the 680whp motor was in with no motor.... So do you know any details of the motor at all besides custom everything? Am I understanding this correctly?
Edit: Or can you even find out? Like what compression was it running, was it sleeved, ect ect ect.
