mods - extractors and a holey 2.5in exhaust (at the time i tested it), cold air intake, mandrel bent pipe and k&n flat panel filter.
my best time was a 15.529 @ 145.66km/h
i had s**t tyres that day, and had more than 1/2 tank of juice, and it was just unleaded.
since then i have got a new 2.5in exhaust, and a hi-flow cat, so should go quicker, just had no time to run it.
by the way it's a 6cyl 5spd manual.

mods as per my signature. i ran a 15.2 at 147 kph. i think my exhaust is s**t and thats why im running s**t a** times i can hear her choking when im flooring it, i would expect to be in the 14's the amount of cash i spent. in two weeks im getting a high stall so that should fix the problem.
