I guess you're talking about how hard you can launch the car...... well with the stock auto/stock stall it won't be awesome, but with the right amount of power and builty tranny with a high stall it can get crazy...

Off the line there is really no way it will keep up with even a stock STi or Evo... or an AWD Eclipse/TSi off the line... but it definatley has the potential to close the gap pretty fast. (My TSi is a bit modded... after a day at the track the entire axle ripped itself out of the tranny from the AWD launches) When my friends and I with AWD cars launch, we will always pull away from MUCH faster both FI and N/A cars off the line... it's just a matter of how long it takes the faster car to catch up. With the auto tranny I still would think you'd get quite a bit of wheelspin...

Theres a 10sec late model supra turbo thats automatic here, so your sc can be very quick. But off the line is where AWD cars shine but like someone else said you could close the gap rather quick.
