Very nice Dave :D

Was that with the KKR430 Turbo?
What boost was that dyno run at?

:beer

cheers! yeah mate the KKR430 alright.. its an animal. has a useable rev range from 3000 to 6500! we ran it at 20 psi, but due to the pneumatic boost control fitted, it tapers off, then picks back up after 6000.. that explains the dip in the curve. new owner will be fitting an elec boost control so it doesnt worry him too much!

dave did u have to make up a custom manifold for that girl?

or can you get them with a exhaust housing that will bolt up too a std manifold.

I'm very tempted to get one...

YOU HAVE TO PUT THIS CAR DOWN THE QUARTER MILE!!!!

I got to see what it does :D

I want a mid to low 12 second pass will the KKR430 do it?
(and 11 sec with a hit of NOS... )

it would if ur running 25 psi or so. i'm running 20 and i'd say it might just dip into the 12's. a 3.9 would help matters too. i'm gonna get down the quarter hopefully very soon, putting an lsd and a set of koni's in for the new owner before i do.. not sure when willowbank closes and reopens, will suss it out!

and yes its a custom exhaust manifold i made, a $700 tuned length jobbie..

delivered it to new owner last nite. dropped boost to 11 psi but its still fast, will increase it again as he gets used to it. will still be taking it to the drags in a coupla weeks though, we're all keen to see what it does!
