...instead of floor the throttle..wait a few seconds..and then get sling shotted forward.

Thats Bloody good feed back mate, thanks for the honostly in your posts well done

wo wo wo wowo.. hang on hang on.. how can you make such a bold statement. What engine? ls1? come from the US as a 260 kw motor, edit it, you will get about 15 20 MAX

Get a GT or a XR8, you will get between 15 to 25, some even higher.




If its a detuned 260 to 225 you may get higher if the zorst ect is changed to match
