We'll have to find out some time, but I think it'd have to shed a fair amount of weight to catch yours
GT37/86HTA is awesome BTW, might be worth considering for yours if you want some more power

nooooooooooo I don't want anymore power.tbh the extra torque that the 2.3 kicks out makes it enough to cope with as it is.i could always pop a bigger jet in the nitrous if I wanted a little more though.

Not shabby at all m8, PM me the graphs if you get 5 as it'd be great to have them on file
I know what you mean about the torque on nitrous, my little 2.1 made 620lbft at 5000rpm gaining 200lbft at 4000rpm from just 35hp of nitrous.

I have to say that with a mere 400-ish bhp I love my AP six pot kit, going fast isn't only about bhp....

P.S. I had my FMIC in matt black ( black car ) to hide it (?)

The car is soooo much of a better place to be in now than with the buckets and harnesses, albeit with alot less support, the way the thing goes is simply incredible !
Pulls from really low revs no bother at all right round and never ever lets up its ridiculous
Or nice and steady cruise in 4th and then when you stab the pedal it ***** off like scooby and shaggy when they see a monster !
All I can say is the car is a credit to everyone involved and Arf should be very proud of his creation from what was a rapid car when he bought it into the sheer animal it is now.
Building engine's like this its easy to see why enginetuner has a reputation of the best of the best.
I don't use this word a lot as over the last few years it has been used to death and mainly out of context but the only word to describe the car is EPIC !!

Cheers

Even with the inexperienced owners tardy changes and the lardy nature of the car it's managed to do 50-100mph in 4.3 seconds.
I suspect with more time behind the wheel getting used to it he'll be a bit faster
