Found out the cat was blocked when we got it home & used the heat gun. Replaced it with a new 5" SMB unit ready for next Wednesday! |

The only drag day on today was the Hi Tech Titles & i was there as a matter of fact. I was in the stands taking photo's as i had a few mates racing. Yea Brett's still at WT as you know. Rob's also still working his 9-5 so this result is all the more impressive, huh? Two 'backyard' tuners who do this type of work in their R&R time are about to snag the record for quickest F6 in WA, possibly AUS & it is still unopened plus it utilises the factory turbocharger : I'm glad to see you're so interested in Monsta Torque & it's business. Means they are being noticed for their great work, even by their competitor workshops & said workshops customers! Last edited by Perana XR8; 20-04-2009 at 10:53 AM. |

However I am surprised that you call Monsta Torque "backyard" tuners. These guys must have some idea of what they are doing, and if I was either of them I would not like to be called a backyarder. Just beacuse they are part time does not mean that they dont put a lot of effort into their work. Daniel Last edited by Perana XR8; 20-04-2009 at 10:54 AM. |

Whoever's spinning webs should get their facts straight or even better, stay out of my business. Why the need for everyone to sit around & make up stories like my nanna does in her sewing group? : Quote:
I believe that myself & PW both ran/run Nizpro stage II kits with SMB exhausts... If his is second rate gear then mine must be as well. I'm sure Simon would love to hear how his gear is second rate on an open forum Quote:
You know what i'm referring to... It's a certain few low lifes that call Monsta Torque 'backyard' in order to snag more business for themselves or their tuner. Results speak for themself so there's no harm being done to MT's reputation imo. Also, customer service goes a long way in any industry. MT has this hands down over any competitor... Any other opinions not related to my 11.010 run or the other previous runs in this thread, please either take it to pm or waffle on about it in your own thread. Thanks, Dean.

wow, thats fast... my parents are looking at modifying their '06 BF F6... but its manual.
so CAT600/03XR6T, is the nizpro stage 2 gear good or bad? cos even though those cars ran fast times, im not too sure my dad would want "2nd rate components" on his fpv. is there any decent F6/XR6T kits on the market he can look at?

Hey Tocchi, I think you will find that CAT600 wasnt implying that the gear was second rate as such, he was saying that the gear now in comparison is better gear making the older stuff by comparison second rate. I wouldnt say its second rate just not as good as whats on offer now. When we did Phils old BF F6 a couple of years ago it was with Nizpro's original tube and fin coolers with the original factory hot side pipes, Nizpro's old throttle body adaptor ect. I think that at this time, right now, there stuff is the best. When something better comes along, Thats what guy's like myself will use.

Throttle body reducers haven't changed have they? If they have, it can't of been a big change as all they are is a cast piece of ally that goes from 3" to 2.5" or whatever size it is with a mount for the MAP sensor.
Better quality now you say Simon? I would have to disagree with that after recieving my stage II kit & being EXTREMELY disappointed. You would know as i'm sure the email that listed everything that a $7k+ kit shouldn't have wrong with it was sent to you along with Simon G?? The China casting quality would be a huge disadvantage in comparison to 'old school' plenums & coolers imo as airflow/direction would be hindered. This is only MY opinion though, in response to yours & Otway's opinions. If the achievement has to be chalked up as using better parts than yourself then so be it... I ran a 10.97 @ 128.5mph last night with full weight, full tank of fuel, lowered suspension, unopened engine, standard turbo, standard diff gears (not 4.10's as per Phil's Bionic F6) and a lazy 1.75 sixty footer due to poor track conditions. Thanks. |

Its always great seeing cars running fast with product that I sell and have been for some time now. The only time I am focused on as far as records go is Marks. Good effort Rob, Dean and Adrian have done well.

Anyways, everything was sorted in the end as Rob & Brett cleaned everything up by hand. They also drilled all necessary holes & supplied the necessary brackets/bolts etc that weren't sent/drilled when the kit arrived... Seems to be similar to FoMoCo service, No? : Quote:
As for diff gears, stories get out of hand as you well know. I had someone ask me about a ETM manifold & screamer setup that i was running the other day? Some muppet thought it necessary to make up roumors that my car had more mods then it did for some reason?? I simply posted what i had been told about the 4.10's... Quote:
My casts were disgraceful, hence why i said there would be no performance benifit over the previous cooler. Quote:
