I ran a 9.96 @ 138mph in my ED xr8 on the weekend , It has a stock short block with aftermarket heads cam manifold etc. and I 'm running twin E-bay turbo's as this is a budget project, I still run the stock 4speed BTR auto as i still drive this on the street and a few weeks ago I drove it from Gladstone to Palmyra race way in Mackay (app. 450klm one way) raced it running a new pb at the time of 10.46 @ 132mph then drove it home. Here's a couple of pic's of the set up

and a pic with my 10.00 dial in, one of the track staff thought it would be funny to turn it into a face LOL

Nice street car you have there.
Well done

Mate, being a "nobody on here is better than being known. It usually means you are out at the track or on the spanners acheiving shit rather than posting on here talking shit about "oh I did this, my car can run this but only on c144 race fuel"

So congrats on getting out there and showing everyone how it's done.




Is this Paul Butler?

awesome setup, to drive it long distance and pull them low times and drive home again. i bet it feels good overtaking the trailer cars on the hwy .well done mate!

tuff as nice

here's some video from the friday night test & tune this was two 10.1's at 13 psi before turning the boost up to 14 psi for the 9.96

very good time, what power was it making? about 600hp? i dare say your bottom end and or drivetrain will meet a very very dismal end launching like that often enough:P
