Guest Guests Posted 30/01/08 02:33 PM Posted 30/01/08 02:33 PM Well done mate 12's are really hard to crack in the sedans regardless of power so don't beat yourself up about it!

LOLI should also add that the car is in full street trim - tyres, spare wheel, back seat, sub amp cd cases etc.The car weighs approx 1885kg with me in it, so its not a lightweight!

LOLI should also add that the car is in full street trim - tyres, spare wheel, back seat, sub amp cd cases etc.The car weighs approx 1885kg with me in it, so its not a lightweight!Perhaps its worth taking out spare wheel and running on half a tank to drop some weight?Have your MPH improved?Well done mike! Awesome results for just tune and CAI really! Edited 31/01/08 03:58 AM by Mat

I think this carries a bit more respect when you build a car for the street and then race it how you drive it everyday.I might ask Vic at CV if he can drive it for me one time, but I like doing it myself!
