discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 4m 19d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 09/10/14 08:55 AM Share Posted 09/10/14 08:55 AM Welcome to the forum DY.Saw the facebook post myself, big numbers so naturally scepticism comes in. Forget the numbers and just enjoy the drive. Take it to the track and see what you trap at if you care to see what everyone thinks of the power figure vs MPH. I used to run the cruises in WA section for a couple years but have stepped down, we're talking about doing another soon though so keep an eye out.Talk of XFT inflated dyno figures and stripped weight is laughable. My car ran up 322rwkw on his current dyno on the same tune that 3 years prior got me a best mph of 121 (11.9@120). Also his F6E that he races has light weight race seats and some other interior stuff removed, because it's an F6E so has more fruit in it stock (heavier), plus as Arronm stated it's got a cage and chute and his big frame driving it each time. It was done to even out back to stock weight to make the ZF times meaningful as he's required to have a cage and chute to race that fast. He posted up the weigh bridge result (without him in the car) somewhere buried on the XFT facebook page I think and it was very close or more than a stocker. Certainly not 200kg short, LOL. When you're one of the top houses in the country and getting records you attract a lot of criticism. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89354-got-some-work-done-to-the-fg-mk2-xr6t/page/6/#findComment-1505166 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got tired of feeling the weight of responsibility and thus having less carefree fun driving around. Also my spare time got a bit reduced. It's not a hard job, just takes time.Low profile but fast car look FTW! I was very much driving a sleeper for quite a few years. Stock rims, no tint, black cooler. Never had any problems with the constabulary!
