Like i said before, they are good numbers Stav. Seems like that interceptor was a good purchase...

Glad to hear the missus is open to you spending a few more nights at WID. Obviously she can seem just how much you love it.

Keep up the good work dude

Far out. Excellent time bud. Especially in that heat! Beat my time by 0.002secs too. I'm guessing you'll be back in the colder months aiming for 13's?

In the colder months depending on if the car is working right it will be back for a better time. Driving around today the new front suspension and stering feels a bit off.It has only been in for 3 weeks but I think the guy is good for it.

When I saw my 10.5 a/fuel ratios at last autotech dyno day it peeved me off.I wasnt going to pay any tuner to tune my car here. I was put in the comprimising position of becoming a begger .With my dignity I paid the cash and got the interceptor. Bought tuning reference manuals a slowly started from there. Dare I say though,that the tune still is lightly out and the car still has more in it.
Thanks you guys too ..youve been inspirational!!

LOL Daz, he will, once he upgrades his AU to a BF Futura wagon (in Shockwave of
course :sm_headba )... First B series NA6 in the 12's it will be.

Can't wait for those cold nights Stav... Dazzler will come down to WSID to keep the place
warm with his NOS bottle(s) :P

Nice going Stav, got a bit of a soft spot for the "old" AU. Might be time to get out there again with another one.

Hey guys thanks.
Craig the au's are cheap as chips now .It would be great to see someone else trying to do an au up . Tripower sold his..Hamo sold his..Geza is keeping quiet and Casper has dissappeared. I would like to see a 13 pass and when you think about it its only 0.3 seconds away. The weather was really hot.Youd think the time would be that much closer with no other mods but a temperature drop.
Anyway good to see you on the forums mate,hope thiungs re good on your end..
Stav

Hey Craig, you know where I am mate, I'm sure I could help you find a home for said parts! I know of a certain sedan that would be willing to donate itself to the cause! :P

Well done again Stav, awesome to see you still have a few tricks up your sleve yet. I can only dream of getting anywhere near you!
