Hi guys. I have a 2001 AUII 220kw Manual XR8 Sedan. Is 14.025 @ 98mph a good 1/4 mile time? The only thing it's had done is a set of SVO Headers & Hi-Flow Cats,and from the Cats back 2 1/2" Manta twin system.

XR8 girl in what weather conditions did you achieve 14.021 quarter at 98 mph. Just exhaust mods heh? You'd need to be spastic to believe such garbage.

Believe me an exhaust isn't enough to do those times. WHOOSA from AFF forum has 220kw xr8 with G&D airbox, tune and full exhaust and he did 14.08 or something on a 15 degree day!!!!!!!!!!

My car is the quickest of its kind stock. I've only got hm headers which do sweet f$%k all and a stock 2/1/2 single exhaust.

4.4 hey???

Who needs 5000 bhp of top fuel drag racer to burn 400 black board rulers in 4.4 seconds? Howling 4.4's out of T2 TE50's is just no problem, according to t2te50. If this thing really punches that hard, shouldn't it come with a full racing harness, strengthened chasis and a spare pare of undies??? icon_lol.gif

Seriously though, what mods have you got t2te50? 14.4 is BA XR8 times. Nice!

You say not possible, she says done.
I say, show me timeslips with a pic of the car at the strip with it's number visible.
Can't argue with that proof.

AU falcons are the dux nuts in my view. Yes I'm bloody competitive to the point of being dangerous.

When you going down princess highway at 180-190 clicks 3 abrest (VU ss ute, BA xr8 with quad exhaust and my car)

All I can say is that they were impressed. More my driving prowess I think.
