I know the Bonne'* are quite a bit faster than that.

insanek'* 90 SE
Dude, You should kill that car. I raced many years of taurus and sable from ses'* down to early 90'* and smoked them. I had a 90 SE with a chip in it and there'* no way I run in the 9'* 0 to 60. I've been side by side with 2000 gp gt'*. I also beat a few 92 -95 se'*.

Only the SHO is fast.
You will smoke the SE.

Actually in my opinion, I would predict the SHO to beat an ssei by a just bit. The SHO has 20 fewer hp, but it also has 300 or 400 (maybe even more) fewer pounds. And its got that 5 speed, so if the guy driving is good with a manual...
Interesting thing I heard from an SHO guy, the V6 SHO'* are faster than the V8'*. I thought that was pretty funny.

Well, I guess that is just your opinion...but we made an SHO look like a complete fool in the SSEi before the rockers, so it was basically just a pulley because plugs, wires, and t-stat don't do much for performance. So my guess is without the extra ~25hp the puley gave it would be about even or the SSEi would be ahead a little. But you never know unless you were to race a stock SHO in a stock SSEi.

They are faster than the automatic V8 Taurus'.
