hypnodoc It's All In Your Mind Gold Donating Members 2,198 Member For: 21y 3m 25d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 13/05/04 08:40 AM Share Posted 13/05/04 08:40 AM :: It was a long and adventurous drive from Perth to Melb. The GT took to the Nullabor like a duck takes to water and drove all the way without complaint or problems.The real bonus was the visit to APS today, not only for the Unichip but also to see what a professional setup Peter has out there, and the dynoroom is another story entirely.Anyway the bottom line is that the head tuner man extracted 263.9 rWkW out of the Boss and that's good enough in my book, all wired in and finished in 2 and a half hours. Now the car is a rocket, much more down low and all up through the range. Apart from visiting the beautiful state of Victoria, was it worth the drive? You bet!I look forward to meeting all of you going on the Sunday run. grininvasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you enjoyed your visit to APS, will catch up with you soon, make sure you get back to us with a full road report when you have settled into the beast.

Doubt it!If it had a supercharger AND a unichip it would want to make a lot more than 270kw at the treads!270 at the treads is naturally aspirated im sure you will find.

Fourth gear redlines at about 200kph.The other point you make is about the car's handling compared to the T6 - you claim it is tighter and flatter in standard form. This is surprising as according to the Ford spare parts bin they have identical springs (and shocks I think) and the GT is heavier at the front so one would expect a lot of front end wash out with the GT compared to the T6.Anyhow, great ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
