Extractors 5. 2.5" mandrel bent / mild steel catback zorst that would bolt straight up to yours if you are interested - BA XR tip on the end ( that im getting off dcstraight, once again thanks buds ) if you guys thinks that im missing anything that would be good plz let me know

scrap all those ideas and get a manual conersion You should be able to get a manny for under 1k installed.
A manual conversion will make more difference then all those mods combined

is the engine shagged??
i would have thought you would be at least in the very low 16 to very high 15s with a 5 speed. |

what was the 60ft time like?
you should be able to run closer to a flat 16 with an ea s-pack i would think.

my mates EA 5spd ran a 15.9 when he had exhaust and extractors.
He put a volvo thermofan on her, spooled hte diff and ran a 14.7 lol now he has an 11second vn 
so spool your diff mate.. and get rid of the petrol system. Convert her to all gas! |
