    Default VS V8 171.5RwKw, custom boot & install, silver walls

    Thought id do a new one of these, after my car going through a few changes thought id post it up again.

    it once was slammed on Senator wheels. then got defected, not finally ive got the car back to where id like it for now til more things pop up.

    So far its got Pacemakers, exhaust, CAI, Painted engine cover and everything that was yellow under hood, custom boot install done by me and a mate, custom boot, VT SS's, tint, Pioneer stereo.
    Get pics up of interior soon.
    Had it dynoed today just to see what it made cause i always miss the dyno days, got 152.9, was surprised

    Future mods?

    171 is a bit higher than the possible for those mods, but that dyno seems about 10rwkw happier than the others in Adelaide (at 150)

    thanks mate, the first dyno i had made 153RwKw, then i got the tune done which is meant to give an extra 20RwKw, needs a service and K&N too.

    That dyno is a certified dyno mate, ppl made the same or under what they usually get that day, even if you think it is 10 happy, that stil puts me in 160 doesnt it.

    These poor buggers in Adelaide can't though so they really can't tell how their cars go. It's tradjic because if it does make 170 and is that strong in the mid range too. It should be able to be driven down the 1/4 mile quicker than a unopned 304 has ever been before
