Hey 100%, no offence but it's good that they choose to argue on this forum. Imagine if it were at the track! they'd kill each other! I can just see it now! :lol:

. No other engine mods. Stock airbox, stock extractors, HSV exhaust. Nothing special. It was pretty much all in the tune, which is why its worth $1500.

Hey Martin, you must get special Expensive Daewoo one tonners in Adelaide......Every Expensive Daewoo one tonner I have seen has stock exhaust manifolds and a tiny 2 '' exhaust system. I dont think that your math is correct or you have a flat battery in your calculater :fart: . I dont quite understand how you can have all of this work and parts supplied and installed for $1500. Am I missing something here. :censored:

A good bet would be......for $1500 spent on the engine can I make an LS1 go faster than an APS XR6T with $1500 spent on the engine (retail prices only guys!)

Well Ive got a 12.70 says I can.

Come on Pete, bite

So that would include putting 4.11's in the back, slicks and a high stall. You see, depending what you call 'engine' mine has run faster than that with NO mods to the 'engine'. Yep, you go to your local Ford dealer and order a stock 4.0l engine, drop it in my car and it will still run better than your 12.7! :censored: The difference as Peter has mentioned is where you finish not where you start. You obviously have needed serious mods to go better than this 12.7 as you now have some extra air going in!

The C&V car ran 10.98 with a stock engine also, let us know when you're within a second of that with no engine mods!

Was that at a fast track? Or one of these slow ones that you wont come to? :)

Poor Pete cant get to grips with the fact that you dont need to spend a motza on an engine to make it go fast. 12.70 was with STOCK CAST FACTORY headers, and an HSV (twin 2 inch) cat back which I purchased from a local exhaust dealer - he was throwing it in the bin......

So yeah, Ive gotta have spent maybe $20K to get that 12?

No smoke and mirrors here kids

Thought you and Pete were staying at home mate?

As for substandard tracks? I dont remember Calder having a concrete launch pad like Heathcote. Not last time I was there.
