I ran 94.90 mph and I've got the slip to prove it. Although my engine does have the alloy SVO heads which supposedly flow better.
I spent one afternoon fabricating a neat cai setup. If you rock up at albert park this week we can have a good yak. We are few and far between.

thats a good mph i ran 98 mph when i got my 13.9.
doesnt it feel good to be up there with the xr6 turbos and ba xr8's (stock)
its amazing what the less weight of the au does for performance.

I've raced many BA xr8's and can tell you up to 130 you'll be a car length in front. After that they pull 3-4 car lengths on you but are far from disgracing you.
The 220kw starts to choke in 3rd gear from 4000rpm onwards, where the 260 boss just keeps on pulling.
Then again some people know how to extract every last drop out of their cars. My reaction time was 1.01 so as you can see I wasn't trying to cheat and pre empt the green light on the tree.
