Not sure about racing a stealth.

My mom had the one of the first 89 Probe turbos to hit the street from what ford told her.

All i can say is that car was fricking fast. if it had been rwd, it would have been a rocket. I raced several cars like the 240SX, Conquest, some Mustangs, Daytona turbos, camaro rs..and it would beat most of them or hang.

Bad thing though is that since they were fwd, with the turbo you had bad torque steer. car should have been made in rear wheel drive.
