Right now i have a 1989 GTUs with 145,000 miles. You can see my mods in the signature, and I get 60 in about 8 seconds. What would that come down to if I rebuilt the engine (after break in, of course)? I think I'm going to rebuild the engne next year when I pay off my debts and I'm wondering what it will do for me.

Well your engine could still be in good shape even if it has high mileage, a compression test would tell you if your car is not up to stock #'s. my S4 n/a stock did 0-62mph in 7.4 with a 200lb friend in my car, but then again my compression #'s were 125psi on both rotors.

ahah, what are u smoking? Ask Kenny he was there. And to make it even better this was sliding the clutch out at idle 1/2 throttle! Any dropping or more that 1/2 throttle and the tires would just spin and i would get like 10sec 60's.
