It pumped out a healthy 488.1 hp. I am now partitioning the minister of finance. I just gotta get more.....

I believe that the Capa and nizpro cars are at the show, just interested to know if they fronted up to the competition and what numbers they put down. Thanks Peter

Thanks Peter Yes Nizpro and Capa do have cars at the show but I wasn't able to find anyone who had a clue about who or what was running on the Dyno. The Oganization seemed a bit ordinary. They should have had a program for us punters so we could know what was going on. A mate of mine traveled 3 hours to the show and didn't see the top show cars that were on display in the building next door cause he didn't know it was there.

Guest BAXRTUTE Guests Posted 23/02/04 04:13 AM Posted 23/02/04 04:13 AM why did they run the APS car in differant modes? I thought that shoot 6 was for 6 cylinder cars. what phase kit was on the APS car? anyone no if it was a factory car or customers car?

The APS phase III xr6t car made 488.I HORSE POWER in shoot 6 mode. :lol: This is fact and can be verified by the organisers of the show. In addition I have a power graph which I can post which clearly shows the power and that the shoot mode is indeed shoot 6. :banghead: There were a number of runs where the show organisers ran the car in shoot 81 ( shoot 8 was never used ) which was out of our control in order to make a fair comparison of the APS xr6t to the super charged 5.7 Commodore. These are the facts the APS phase III car made 488.I HP in shoot six. It was interesting that no other xr6t ran in the dyno comp, despite there being a number at the show. :( PeterAPS
