How far behind are we??? Have you researched these things and their driveline set-ups Spiro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6BOOST Gold Donating Members 139 Member For: 16y 10m 7d Gender: Male Posted 10/05/10 12:17 PM Share Posted 10/05/10 12:17 PM Its all about factory engineering, they are just 10x better engineered in the rear end, and a lot of places (supra's that is). Stronger diff, stronger CV's, mounting etc. That, plus not so many peopel have tried it with falcons yet. It'll happen, one day;)I have some more info coming on the barometric pressure side of things, once I have all the facts in front of me, the truth will be shown to all 6BOOST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been so many cars out there with stock suspension, just a few key changes and they would be able to get into the throttle much earlier, I'll be having a chat with you, Spiro, when I'm up there at the end of the week.

There are some things that the factory ECU cant do which has been the main focus of my research since the begining, I am more than aware of the rear end setup on Ryan Woons car and others in the US, I have researched the Supra's extremely thoroughly and I can safely say that the problems with the Ford manuals have not arrived to the rear end as yet. Only when we are able to launch in the same way will we know exactly what is weak and where attention is required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
