not high spec,just something totally different to what has been tried before.a fwd ford that will grip and go.target time is a very low 11.
not try it and hope to hit a good time,but a designed suspension package to get the job done.

i ran my times on a smaller 0.64 exhaust housing and only 1.2bar boost about 310hp !!

i then changed to a .86 housing and up'ed the boost to 1.45 and maxed out my 480cc injectors. now on bigger injectors and hoping for more boost so yes i should be faster plus i have a bottle gas in the boot that i have yet to run.
