Thanks Ben, I am pretty happy.

Hey John,

Still got a way to go to catch yours, but I am working on it.

I will let you know how it progresses.

So how is your beast going now?

[qik1]

ive got nothin to complain about. I havent had a chance to give it a hiding yet but I plan to go to cairns this weekend so hopefully I can run it against something to see what its like. with the new tyres its unreal, almost scary. cant wait to take it down the 1/4 & see what it can do. looking into lowering it just abit but keeping the stock rims to keep it looking like a sleeper. exhaust will finally be finished next week so it will look all sweet for the show next week. twin 3 1/2 pipes out the back should look & sound bloody mean.

nice work doug.

im guessing you have a cat upgrade to go with the twin 2.5"? good effort on the stock cooler. how is the heatsoak?

that'll be the next thing!!! its all good during winter but when she gets hot you can feel the diff between night & day runs. what ever you do dont run out & get a cheapie to get more hp, bide your time if you need to & do it right the first time. (trust me I learnt the long & expensive way). unfortunatly its alittle more expensive from here.

I will look at quad pipes out the back later on, however it is pretty loud now and with quad pipes it would be extremely loud. Have fun at your show John, make sure you send me some pics.

Yes XR06T, it was the full upgrade including 4" dump and 3.5" cat, sounds awesome BTW, looking forward to getting a bit of carbon into it and deepening it up.

The stock cooler is struggling as you can imagine, so heatsoak will be an issue for sure. A new intercooler is on the shopping list, but maybe a brake upgrade and fuel pump will be first.

Don't worry, I will be going for the biggest badarse cooler there is.

you bet no use muckin around if your gonna get serious. at this rate you'll crack 11's before I do, its only 2hrs away but a s*&t of a trip. got to stop bein lazy. gonna see if I can get a sound track once we modify the exhaust because at the moment mines pitiful, quieter than stock. so with the 2 X 2 1/2 youve got, its loud??? should post a track up so I can see the diff between the two systems.

Hey John, yep you better hurry up and race it mate, you will get to see the fruit of your mods and bloody great fun as well.

Mine is WAY louder than stock, I will make a video tomorrow so you can hear it.

[qik1]

that would be good. after the show next weekeend I'll see if I can get one of the boys to record omething & we'll shoot her up. I had the back muff off as atest & its was mad but too loud just dumpinging it under the boot, but should be good with the pipes through to the back. theres not gonna be much room around the cutout, there huge. all excited I love gettin stuff done even the little things. & yes your right about goin down the track I just have to do it. I dont really know what to expect but I know it feels bloody quick. its the first time ive really felt that it was. even after all the other bits ive had done along the way. will be good if I can post a good time up!!!
