0 to 60 times for an AT

I did some searching here and a bit on google and was unable to find a wealth of data regarding 0-60 times for the AT models.

I'm curious to know what the real world numbers are. This evening I clocked myself twice... the first time at 8.527 and the second at 8.253.

From a baseline perspective I've seen book numbers as low as 7.5 for the stock AT and as high as 8.5.

Does anyone know of a nice lofty link that'd show tabulated results or if you're an AT owner, what are your personal results and/or results that you've seen?

Well, it really depends on if you have the 4AT or 6AT. I'd think those 8s would be for the 4-spd w/ lower power engine, and the 7s for the 6-spd w/ same engine as manual.

people with 4 ports are doing something more like 10 seconds 0-60 or something along that line

my 6 speed AT did about 8 seconds 0-60 with brake launch

my 6 speed MT did 6 seconds

my turbo did it in

I'm not telling :D

You're serious? 10 seconds 0-60 on a 4 port? Hell, mine is a 4 port... Its limited slip, sports suspension, etc, but I'm still a 04 4AT and I'm consistently hitting low 8s. I'm assuming my AP is accurate... latest firmware at least.

Guess I'll have to. I could see the lag time adding a second or so
