There is a dude that works in cabulture that has an EA 5spd with a pretty stout 4 Litre in it. He has a PB of 13.5sec down the quarter. No one really knows his name but I think he has the fastest N/A 4L falcon in QLD, sorry Lankyscro. It's an EF motor too, not AU. Runs a Microtech.

right... challenge accepted... hehe... probably not... but i will try my best.

i have been launching from 2500rpm to 3250rpm... sometimes willowbank is slippery as a virgins vagina, so 2500rpm soon becomes 6000rpm with a whole lot of wheelspin...

mmm sounds good but i have to be a bit more cautious about the idle being auto even with the unichip to tune it
