Trav199 Member 126 Member For: 14y 20d Posted 16/10/12 11:28 AM Author Share Posted 16/10/12 11:28 AM yerr haha I em getting a bit of heat soak.. after about 5 passes I let car sit for a bit before running again and picked up 2MPH. So maybe stage 3 cooler kit upgrade soon haha yer its a bit hit and miss with track prep.. Last time I ran I struggled heaps in 2nd.. Considering it was only 3rd time racing the car I was pretty happy. Not really to worried about times. I wanna make drive line bullet proof before I go pushing it to hard.as for rims im happy with 19s haha I wanted it to ride nice as well. haha plus a bit extra side wall for traction.. Honestly I cant say that I miss having 20s. haha I felt for what I wanted and how I wanted car to drive 19s were best option.. haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at around 340 - pondering whether to take the leap to the larger turbo like you have.Your well and truly there for the tailshaft.. smashed mine with only 300rwkws.. wasnt pretty. Auto Im not too sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
