Thatll be the plan mate,,

Im in gladdy too bud,,

I actually gave dave at cpv a call today, , he sounds like a real top bloke and have heard good things about him,, im just gonna do a few more runs down the strip with some slicks and perhaps experiment with my other tunes and driving and see how things go,,, and in the meantime talk to the boys rdp to see if we can improve on the tune,,, at least give em a chance to redeem themselves,, that is if my times dont improve and match my power output,,,

I really wanna be hittin the 10s,,,

Aww, , so many naysayers,,, I feel like I dipped out with the tune,, litterally,,, what would cause such a large dip and should a good tuner be able to improve on what I got there'?

Im expecting make big improvements with the times once I get some slicks,,, I wasn't able to launch off the line at all due to wheelspin,,, also was my first time at the drags so im sure some of the blame lays with me and my inexperience,, idk,, time will tell,,, when I can manage to get my hands on some 17" rims and mt's,,

Dont have a pic of the 11.87 run on my tablet but this is close enough

What tuners in brissy area would u recommend then if not real dyno? I thought they were pretty good,, it was my first modds to the car and haven't been anywhere else so I dont know how they stack up against other shops,,, so far so good,, took the car to test and tune on friday and managed a 11.87 on streets tyres,,, car hasn't missed a beat,,,

Whos flog on?

Finally took some pics

Yeah beats me,, he said it doesn't usually do that on other similar setups and get little more torque than that,,, ,, but im happy itsma totally different car to drive now,,, cant just floor it as u could in stock trim,, gotta search for the traction

Finally modded my F6,, let the boys at real dyno in kippa ring loose on it,, managed 423rwkw on E85 @ 20 lbs of boost, while it was on the hoist I had xyz coilovers and superpro diff bushes fitted,, the blue line is on bp ultimate mods were,, pw batt relocation pw air box pw stage 2 coooler injectors valve springs head studs Walbro intank fuel pump ported exhaust housing flapper mod as it was making too much boost 4 " dump high flow cat 3 1/2" mild system zf service and cooler kit zf tune turbo oil line kit

Ive had some coilovers fitted since I first put the rims on so its a tighter fit ,,

Ok,, so I put the rims back on and took a few measurements and more pics,, I measured the offsets and they are +34 for the rear and +23 on the front,, had another revelation whilst measuring the offsets,, the rear rim measures 11 inches!!!! Here are some more pics,,,

Hey guys,, ok so I recently purchased a set of 20" monaco's online for my fg f6,,,20x10' s with 275's for the rear and 20x8's with 245's for the front,,I specifically said that I did not want the stretched look , so anyways the day they arrived I eagerly opened the boxes like a kid at xmas,, to my suprise,, they had fitted 255's to the rears and 235's to the fronts,, so I immediately rang them to say there had been a balls up,, the sales guy said that they decided to stretch these tyres on because they were concerned that they would rub on the guards with the tyres I requested,, they said fit them and see how the fit,, so I did,, and the offsets are all wrong,,(not sure what offset they are),,,, the rear rim sits wider than the guard,, definitely not what I wanted,, so I let them know and they want me to send them back so the can machine the centres to reduce the offset,, is this common practice? if so what offset would I need to fit the tyre sizes I want and have them fit just inside the guards? Attached is a poor pic of what the rear looks like,,,

Hello peeps I'm a newbie to the site and to forums so please bear wityh me,,,,I have a question for you all, I'm undecided as to which car to buy,, the older F6 or the newer xr6T,,, both put out the same power and the prices are almost comparable,,, am wondering which way to go and would love to tap into the wealth of info you all have Do they have the same internals and bottom end? I wish to modify it and want around 350rwkw without hurting the long jeopardy and reliability I realise that the f6 has brembos and better suspension but I plan on putting coil overs on so I can sit it on its belly,, and as for the brembos I'm assumming that replacement pads would be be alot dearer?? Any opinions and info on which way I shoould go would be appreciated Mick
