Hey,
Getting a 2500 hi stall installed in the next few weeks and was just wondering what sort of quarter mile times i should expect to run in my au along with the other mods i have already (Read Sig)
I was hoping a mid to high 14'....is it possible or am i kidding myself haha |

| mid to high 14s is fairly reasonable I think. |

| Anywhere between 14.6 - 14.8 depending on launch, air temp, etc. |

Not yet mate  . I'm trying to get a drag day happening. But failing that, there is a drag meet in September or something which I will definently be attending, so I'll let you know how I go. Hoping for a 14.2 or better.
Just to give some idea of how hard yours may go, there is a guy on this forum (Corey Munday) who has ran a flat 15.0 in his VCT AU XR6. Manual, headers, cat back and a K&N. So based on that, you would expect yours to run a mid to high 14. But then again, I reckon Coreys car is a bit of a freak, as it's exceptionally quick for what is done to it. |

| 15 flat with standard cam is pretty impressive...manual's always seem to be faster... do you think it would be worth getting new tyre's before i take it to the track as now if i load it up too like 1500 and take off it spins a bit so i would think i wouldnt get much traction once i get my stallie on |

Depends.
Where are you loading it up and taking off now? Traffic lights?
You'll find that a track has a shedload more grip than the road, so it may compensate for less than ideal tyres...  |

| if its spinning when stalling it to 1500rpm then youd defanitly want to get new tires, after all you would want to get the full potential out of your hi-stall wont you??? |

Stiddy on FordForums was running Pacie extractors and 3" exhaust on an AUI XR6 HP manual ... and he got a 14.9 ... no other engine mods ... unopened engine.
He's done more work to it now .. but hasn't run it since. |
