GOOD ON YA MATE

At least there are some fords that can take down these F****N Vl TURBOS..THEy OD me and someone needs to get rid of them. CONGRADULATIONS

rodderz · 04-09-2005, 07:51 PM

Well done Adam... 1st into the 9's!

Wasnt long ago it was Geea into the 10's, these XR6T's will still get a lot faster yet too

Adam what sort of work is left, bigger turbo, weight reduction, NOS?

parawolf · 04-09-2005, 07:57 PM

Man... 9 seconds, that must be a WILD ride... next time you're out at the drags beg/borrow/steal a video camera and get it mounted into the car and point it at the console/driver - make sure you can see the tacho and speedo!

NOS i dont think i will ever need

Bigger turbo is on the cards but there is still more left in the car with its current setup so ill keep pushing it see what we can do

FordACE · 04-09-2005, 08:52 PM

oh god! that is impressive. the stock turbo fact makes me quiver. I can't believe what a beast Ford has created.

Congratulations on your time mate!

SpoolMan · 04-09-2005, 08:59 PM

Congratulations to Adam and the HPF awesome effort 9 sec pass at 144 mph is huge..

ratter · 04-09-2005, 09:11 PM

Congratulations on the times.

It's being mentioned on another forum that it was stripped out, is this the case or not.

I personally don't care, because I think it is great, but it needs to be sorted out quickly if it's not the case.

Again, Well done

galaxy xr8 · 04-09-2005, 09:36 PM

Quadcams · 04-09-2005, 09:41 PM

Man that is awsome, thats one crazy "FORD" machine and still stock turbo.
Congratulations mate first into the 9's.

The Mighty Red · 04-09-2005, 09:47 PM

Now Chris... get that ute of yours into this territory....

jd dad · 04-09-2005, 11:34 PM

Pretty impressive and really taking the seats out wouldnt make a huge difference anyway, a tenth at best I`d say

Laminge · 04-09-2005, 11:43 PM

Awesome Times

Hope he has the roll cage and saftey gear in there now

**ebxr8240** · 05-09-2005, 12:49 AM

A chute too ???

**Bluehoon** · 05-09-2005, 09:07 AM

Well done!!!
Lucky i will never meet you at the lights

:

Wonder how much more is left in the T's?????

it:

Do i hear 8 sec passes?????

05-09-2005, 09:10 AM

Chris

Car is still like a stock car to drive on the streets

Bluehoon

I think we will see 8 second xr6 turbos but traction is going to be the biggest problem

**Chris** · 05-09-2005, 09:20 AM

Brilliant work mate, quite an achievement. After the LS1 experiment, you must be pleased with this ride.....

Anyone have any ideas on what a VL turbo has run with a standard factory part numbered turbo? cant see it being any quicker than a low 12, although i'll stand corrected!! but thats another thread.........

With the warmer months on the doorstep, I cant see anyone else getting near you. Well done and keep raising the bar!!

Ghiadude · 05-09-2005, 11:38 AM

OH MY GOD!!!
well done dude!! do you relise youve just made history???? i cant think of any other car that pulls 9's with a standard turbo???
