Noticed at the bottom of the page that a performance figure for:

- 0-100 km/h is 4.96 seconds :blush:, and

- Quater mile (standing start) is 12.73 seconds at 175.41 km/h :blink:

Looks like some dood at 58.168.5.89 edited it on the 22 January 2008.

I'm thinking WTF? where would these figures come from? We all know our rides are fast but come on :innocent: ...

high flow exhaust system, higher capacity fuel pump, and a Garrett GT3540 turbocharger with an external gate (up from the GT3040 on the XR6T)

- the exhaust is the same as the XR6T isnt it? the fuel pump is identical as is the turbo - other than the pressure that is used.

The Times are correct as some of these cars are guns.

My totally stock F6 ran many 13.2's and F6BF's car ran a 12.9 on the night stock.

A 12.7 is not unrealistic if the conditions are right.

Fair enough - seems a little fast but ok. To be honest I've never timed mine and I know the difference between cars can vary significantly.

Woah - weight says 1715 kgs - :thumbsup: Unless the car came from the factory missing a collection of parts I think that's about 60-70kg light...

I dunno, to do 12.7 you'd have to be doing more than 175kph, more like 182kph (109mph)??

The 4.96 sounds very fast, some of the best run in stock phoons with 245rwkw wud be struggling to do 5.0 flat

maybe he's running a different fuel??

I thought the T's were 35/40s as well.
