Go with the Redline. The RL is trapping 94MPH in the 1/4. With good traction that is good for about 14.3 - 14.5.

The Tiburon's 88MPH trap is good for about 15.7 - 15.9 with traction. 1.5 seconds is HUGE when talking 1/4 mile times!
Now i like the RL but 14.3-14.5??? I dont think so. A 2004 Mustang GT runs like a 14.2 and thats 100lbs more torque and 60 more horses altho they weigh a lil more. I havent heard of a redline better then 15.0. not syaing it cant happen, maybe 14.9 but 14.3 stock?? No way.
