hey mate..
just reading asbout your au xr8 sounds loke a nice car, everyone on here is talking about how to compair the ba xr8 and the au xr8, stock they might run close 1/4 miles, but if you do the same mods to a ba as you havedone to your au the ba will kill it,, exhaust tune on a ba xr8 will have it down the 1/4 only cause the tauque will be much higher and the boss motors LOVE to breath, i pretty much have the same mods on my ba xr8 exhaust cold air, and a underdrive pully and herrod spacer, has not been tuned but has got 240 at the wheels, so my spacer and pully would match the tune if not less then the tune and it ran a 13.6 down the 1/4 mile,
apart from thats point your car sounds awsome mate, post up a photo so can have a look at this ncie car of yours
cheers |
