Great car mate, awesome to see another worked XR6T on the forum. How the hell did you make that power on standard valve springs though?

Cheers
Nut

[jet066]

thanks nut not so bad yourself & its the bf mkII with the same internals as the typhoon which includes the valve springs. but in saying that i have heard of them needing to be changed at alot less hp so i guess i pulled the right straw. next lot of mods it will definately need to be done though but thats ok part in parcel of it all.

no worries lee i knew you was playin. would love to see your thing down the track. would be good to have someone down there givin me pointers as i go. ive got a few major goals id like to reach before the next undertaking so i need all the help i can get!!!

at this stage i'm keen for late october/early november

[jet066]

im gonna try & get down there hopefully sometime later this month to get some practise in & anyother time after that im keen just let us know when your goin down & i'll see if i can swing it.

[jet066]

abit of a update on the car. the surge tank is gettin fitted as we speak with a new 044 pump gettng ready for next weekend in townsville. hopefully all will go well & will come back with descent numbers. not expecting miracles but soughted out the launches hopefully & the surge problem as well. also i'm using next weekend not only as practice but a guage for some future upgrades. within the next couple of weeks i'll have a nice new shiny intake plenum & have it retuned hopefully seeing close to the magic 400rwkw mark but more importantly offer a stronger tune for the 1/4 to get our time closer to 10's using pump fuel. all i need is a good night, some practise & for me to learn how to launch the big tub!!!
