Yup. I think that would be better

I don't think you should reduce 0.5-0.7s to your 0-100km/h maybe around 0.2s?

My 0-100km/h is 7.56s (=

for instance 0-60 times for:

A Lexus is350 is 5.6 and it gets 6.5 to 7 sec
A Dodge charger R/T is 5.2 and it gets 6.2-6.8 sec

weather is a big factor

Under what conditions IS350 gets 7 sec? maybe 5000 ASL....who will test it under those conditions anyway. My point was that IS250 is a joke of an engine under any conditions
