lil pink, lipstick ,doggy dicks ftmfw,woohoo!!!!
........ok........i'll shutup now.
Its quite possible,anything is possible,but like i keep saying,it'll cost u an absolute fortune to achieve.
I believe makeing the power with forced induction is quite easy... keeping the weight sub 1000kg is also easy. Its all about power delivery. What areas / items would the fortune have to be spent on?

yes its quite easy to make the power as witnessed by all the n00bs i seem to be running into lately around the northern beaches of sydney in their big arsed booster fitted VL's.Its a damn scream when i catch em off boost,leave em for dead,but watch the things monstering up in my rear view mirrors & shooting past me at about 300km/h.Its a pity for their sake that weve already gone well past 400m & they give me some excuse for it at the next set of lights.Its even funnier when u see the same n00b catching the bus the next week cos his car is sitting outside his house with repair costs way beyond his meager budget after he spent all his cash on bolting that monster turbine to his stock motor.
putting the power to the ground effectively,cmon, u know thats not exactly an easy exercise in a 14 sec FWD car,wait till u get down to the 12's,let alone 11's it becomes the realm of the experienced,expert even,setups & drivers.If u dont want to work for that experience yourself,then u will pay thru the arse to buy that knowledge off someone who has.
BTW,my supposedly little CRX is tipping the scales at 1007kg,there goes a few more compromises in keeping it easily under 1000kg.
to do this all in a daily driver,ADR approved,reliable,semi comfortable FWD honda is where u'll blow most of the cash.Just ask anyone who has put their 11 sec street honda up for ADR approval how much they really spent on firstly getting it to a passable state then going thru the whole process.Reliable............prepare your wallet for ultimate doom as u fork out for highly engineered parts.Semi comfortable........say goodbye to all your power options,A/C,power steer,audio,even heating in a lot of cases,sound deadening,carpet,the ability to change a flat tyre,but u reckon your quite happy to totally rebuild your car back to a 13sec street dog every time u leave the strip,then so be it.
How happy do u think your left leg is gonna be on a daily basis with your new 11 sec clutch setup?
After totally rebuilding the interior of your "semi comfortable" car,dont forget to jack it up & change the wheels & swap some street springs & dampers back into it.
The 11 sec supercars dont cost what they do for no reason,they achieve most of what your asking for,in a more ideal body/engine/driveline layout,with super lightweight highly engineered parts,but even then there are certain compromises to be had.
I think its time to give up on the dream & join the rest of the crowd,constantly rebuilding the engine of your rather uncomfortable daily driver & just pay/rectify the defect notices when they pop up,& start saving up for that supercar uve always wanted.
i've got a good idea... how about not using a fwd platform?
CC Lancer Coupe
Strip interior from front seats back
Evo engine
Work the Evo engine (pretty easy to get high power out of them if u want to spend the money)
Keep the car looking stock, coil overs, put some light weight rims on it.
the stock styling of them will make it fairly easy to keep the car over 100mm thus keeping it legal.
and if u were really wanting speed convert it to awd
power to weight ratio would be an absolute killer!
Any car making enough power to run those times will NEVER pass an emissions test for a start, therefore being illegal.
It is not possible to have an 11sec legal FWD car. If you were to change your question and just find out about a combination to suit but it didn't have to be legal then that is a totally different story. :)
I am not talking 11s in street trim and condition..
a Street car that you could take to the drags, Throw on a set of slicks... Maybe have a tune for race fuel (high boost) ... possible a shot of nitrous... but not getting to the point of drastic weight reduction
