On the stock turbo the GST won't go anywhere. The T25 is just too damn weak. I know becasue my Grand Marquis was faster in the 1/8th than my Spyder GST was.
Give the DSM a real turbo though and you'll find out the advantage of cars that don't mod in "stages."

omg u would kill him trust me
you will deff rape him but those DSM's are nothing to mess with when modded correctly, mod for mod a DSM WILL WHOOP a Rex anyday, my friend got raped by a AUTO GST powered by a 20G when he was stage 2 it made us look like we were just siting there, it put bus's on us

I would hardly call a 20G GST mod for mod compared to a stage 2 WRX. I mean you put a 20G on the WRX and it will be right there with it, the stock WRX turbo is only a tiny bit larger than the stock GST turbo... Mod for mod they are pretty close.
When I was stage 2 (without even an upipe, just AP + TBE) i raced a number of friends with Intake, TBE + boost controller and even from a roll I would beat them all every time by at least a slow pull, the one I raced the most times was the Talon equivilant of the GST (FWD turbo). I raced one kid who 'claimed' to have some kind of turbo swap (he was kinda sketchy acting though, wouldnt go into detail) and he was pretty close from a roll but I would still pull a little.
The stock turbo's on those DSM's will only produce around 230-250whp, a little more or less depending on year and supporting mods; about what a WRX will with a full tunned stage 2. But those 4G63's are stout as hell, and they take to crazy modding a bit better than the EJ20 though. I'm pretty sure you can run a bit more boost through one of those than our engines before needing to rebuild the bottom end though.

The T-25 is a waste of a turbo, but there are a **** load of people in 6-Bolt powered DSM's with stock 14b's that are plenty deep into the 12's and 11's...
