is hardly a destruction. The Viggen has much better mid range acceleration, and will destroy the R32 in 3rd gear and above. As for mods, the R32 has a NA V6 engine, so no easy inexpensive ECU upgrades/power mods. The R32 is overhyped and underperforming compared to the WRX/STI.
Am I crazy to think you can get sub 6.5 sec times out of a Viggen? Does it need to since the R32 takes 6.6 seconds? For your information, Car and Driver got 6.2 secs with a stock 9000 Aero. If you have too much wheelspin to get low 0-60 times, you either have sucky tires, a too heavy right foot or both. Now I'm not saying that I wouldn't like to have AWD. Just not the R32.
