Coop450 Member 144 Member For: 12y 6m 27d Posted 14/11/12 11:47 AM Author Share Posted 14/11/12 11:47 AM So I decided to take the Luxo Barge to The Creek tonight to see what she would do "Dead Stock". The only thing I did before going was fit a K&N Filter to the standard air box. I took out the spare wheel and jack, the car had a full to the brim tank of fuel. Best I managed was a 12.8@110mph. I am absolutely wrapped with this considering the car is dead stock. I will post up a pic of the time slip for those non believers. Cheers Coop.

Coop450 Member 144 Member For: 12y 6m 27d Posted 01/12/12 09:26 AM Author Share Posted 01/12/12 09:26 AM Bit of an update. I have ordered an Xr8 bonnet just waiting for it to arrive. Have redone the tint to 18% so it is now nice and dark. Car is booked in at C&V on Wed morning to have Tune, injectors, Cat and Herod pipe kit. I will then be heading back to Eastern creek Wed night to race my mates VE Gts that is Cammed up and what not, bring on the battle.

Coop450 Member 144 Member For: 12y 6m 27d Posted 05/12/12 12:16 PM Author Share Posted 05/12/12 12:16 PM Update - so I had the car at CV today and the guys replaced my Cat with a Venom cat I had bought, fitted the Herrod pipe kit, fitted injectors and Con weaved his magic with the Tune. The car spun up 292rwkw on a safe tune with a very aggressive power curve. I was very happy with this result considering the small mods to the car. Took it for a drive and oh boy what a difference. So I then headed home got changed and ready to go the the creek. I decided to run the car on my street 20inch wheels as I wanted to see what it could do totally street driven, I didn't even touch the tyre pressures I left them at 36psi. The car ran a best of 12.1@115.6mph with a lazy 2.002 60ft time. Remembering this car is still a single wheeler. Very happy with the results, the worst the car ran was 12.4@112 All I can say is love it. Cheers Coop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
