Still plenty of time i had a 6 to start off nothing wrong with them either people get plenty of power out of them, there just missing the sound of a v8

yer the power surprised me i didnt think only 165kw would go so well. especially with all these new v6 cars with 180-200kw and there not quick really all power to weight i guess.

lol you can have one but not mine

seems the stroker is gonna be a while yet on the up side it dosent go too bad stock did a 14.6 with only mod being the big pacemaker extractors (probably overkill for a 5.0 but be ok for a 5.8) i thought that was ok. hope for 12s with stroker tho!

Also got a level 3 cluster, which i thought would be great but i hate it lol! every mode i set it to tells me how bad i am doing on fuel, or how many liters i have used or how little km are left in the tank but it is actually good i guess. this week i did 13.4L/100km thats not bad yeah?

i want some weels tho anyone got any 18" for round 1k in perth good tread
