If you want a drive of a modified T with edit and injectors, you can have a run in mine and I'll show you how it all works.Luke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that not only would Steve get hosed by the slow FPVs around any track you would care to choose, but that the slow FPV drivers could also pedal the 80k "Purple Menace "down the quarter faster to boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the day, track driving has got diddly squat to do with total power, its more the total setup of the car. Now you guys are just plainly talking sh*t....sorry, but you are !! Challenge somebody who knows how to corner their cars and they'll chop you all in their Type R's, Skylines, 350Z and other less powerfull cars !!!! Julien, what did you run at the track ??? If I recal your clutch burnt out or something.....Perfect example, should I go screaming out that Edit is sh*t cause a typhoon with edit ran a sh*t time.....this is what you guys are doing, making calls without looking at reason !!Jeff, true my car hasnt ran a 12 yet however there is perfectly good reason behind that. My car has run a 13.3 second pass with a slipping clutch, confirmed not only by my mechanic but by the DNF run that I pulled when the clutch packed it in on the same night. Now with a new clutch, ill take her to the track again and will post up the time slips when I go. On this point though, again, you miss the point !!! End of the day, running on the track again means sh*t all unless you know how to drive, therefore, you really cant compare 2 products when you have differences in driver ability !!!!As for MG, his first run had the car going sideways and he still managed a 12 second pass.!!! Wait till he gets used to running on slicks then we shall see what time he pulls..id say it will be ALOT better then an 11.9...PS, I was expecting you to show at the track that day, perhaps a bit of a run ???Anyhow, end of the day, all this comes down to is the fact that you blokes have no respect for somebody elses opinion, and once somebody mention's anything but your precious edit you all jump at the chance to cut their throats.

End of the day, track driving has got diddly squat to do with total power, its more the total setup of the car. Firstly , I am not the most experienced nor skilfull driver around myself.Secondly people who could not drive a stick up a dead cops date shouldn't call anyone slow irrespective of talk.What is the car set up for?? Boasting of total power only is for Dyno queens. Put up or shut up so to speakJulien, what did you run at the track ??? If I recal your clutch burnt out or something.....Perfect example, should I go screaming out that Edit is sh*t cause a typhoon with edit ran a sh*t time.....this is what you guys are doing, making calls without looking at reason !!Correct ,I ran a blistering 18 @ ~ 100ks with a smoked clutch.Did I go screaming that unichip blew the CVs on my T ?? Of course not and I didn't .So your point is what exactly?Dean, stop getting so precious about all of this as it is pretty much tongue in cheek...you know End of the day, running on the track again means sh*t all unless you know how to drive, therefore, you really cant compare 2 products when you have differences in driver ability !!!!As for MG, his first run had the car going sideways and he still managed a 12 second pass.!!! Wait till he gets used to running on slicks then we shall see what time he pulls..id say it will be ALOT better then an 11.9...PS, I was expecting you to show at the track that day, perhaps a bit of a run ??Get real , as if I am going to say yep I will run any modded auto with significantly more power . Hiding to nothing chip or not. That said I am happy to come down to WSID to try and better my 18. If you want to line up that's cool as well. Could be a bit of fun, and I am easy win or lose as to me it does't matter whether it's chip or edit. We are both happy with our respective options, each to their own.I did run a PB with a Unichip granted, if Edit was an option I would have gone quicker... simpleYou are also right in saying Master G will get quicker , of that I have no doubtAnyhow, end of the day, all this comes down to is the fact that you blokes have no respect for somebody elses opinion, and once somebody mention's anything but your precious edit you all jump at the chance to cut their throats.If you care to read back over the past few years you will find that there has been one clear protaganist in virtually all deleted or locked threads on this site . fact.What has he been doing huh I have no personal issues with chips , just not the best option for me IMHO. Should Ford lock up the ECU access that we now enjoy with Edit, what do you think will happen..... yep Piggy , Piggy , Piggy me , what a Stooge I will be.Dean... there is no need to get all uptight over Unichip V Edit.It's just piss taking. That said Unicip for me was not without it's shortcomings Maybe CYA at the strip sometime soon <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that not only would Steve get hosed by the slow FPVs around any track you would care to choose,I highly doubt that as according to tests the GT corners slower than a Focus. but that the slow FPV drivers could also pedal the 80k "Purple Menace "down the quarter faster to boot Well, I'd still be there a good 6 seconds before you mate And probably 5 before Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
