i ran a 15.2 in a stock-engined ef manual with a full exhaust and cold air.
surely you'd get a low 15??

I'd take a punt and say your pushin around 140rwkw maybe a little more, and mid 15s, maybe a low 15. Good luck though mate, there are freak cars out there!
suppose im stick up a lil for hyena... but he's actualy done a 14.4 second pass.. on 185 series wide tyres.. and was his only pass... i bet with more practice n some determination a high 13 to flat 14 is for hyenas taking... ive done a 14.67 second pass with 145rwkws.. with alot of practice... "practice makes perfect"...

Sorry to hijack the thread but what time do you guys reckon i could pull of in my el xr6 manual? In stock form i ran a 15.4 with a fair bit of practice. Now i've got pacemaker extractors, high flow, 2 1/2 system and am planning on a K&N pod in box as well as some jmm spec plugs and a set of 10mm leads. I'm hoping for a low 15 (15.1/15.2). My mate pulled off a 15.3 in his manual el xr6 with just a 2 1/2 catback.

um try 14.4 big differnece and thats fukn quick for a n/a taxi!!
170rwkw on his dyno might be 140rwkw some where else..... dynos dont mean s**t they are jsut a tuning tool thats it!!!

Look in reality your car will run anywhere between 15.0-15.9
my friends ef has exhaust/extractors/au3snorkel and shift kit in a non xr6 4.0l with 200,000kms + and he runs conistent 15.2@150kmh
so there is only one way to tell!! and thats NOT by using a GTECH

My car runs 14.81@146kmh and thats with about 120-130rwkw and in FULL STREET TRIM..
