i know, but itll be fun to try.

it's do-able. zorst, CAI, tune and some diff gears+LSD should get you there. i managed it on the above on the crapiest 14" stock wheels and rubber around. and maybe put it on a diet ;)

i'd have another run now that i have good rubber but i'm nursing a gearbox bearing at the mo. it should be good for mid 6's now me thinks and sub 15sec 1/4mile pass

4.388secs. 0-60mph. But I'll be buggered if I didnt delete the wrong run on the G-tec so no photo. Until I can repeat it my previous 4.454sec with photo still stands. DOH!
Considering some more power upgrades in January so it will be interesting how this will effect the time on street tyres as struggling to get the power down now in first gear.
