should pull some impresive times on that spec stu will be nice to see if i can keep up with you, might have to try and get some grippier tyres as i seem to have speed/power for 12's but no grip but like keeping it full road spec

his slicks don't fit on mine and if it hooked up on them then the box would probably break thats part of reason i leave tyres as is so they are my weakest link as only on ib5 and would be nice to put them next to each other see difference in the way they make power as both up high 200's hopefully but yours should spool much quicker than my t34

surely the nitrous is helping with the lag though as most people use it to spool turbo quicker, thats my aim when/if i get mine sorted to spool quicker then go off then come on again up top as torque drops of till say 7000 just before limiter
