hi all...... I managed to pull a 10.9 second 1/4 mile at shakespeare county race way this afternoon!!!!
With the help of API Performance Impreza's New 2.1 COSWOTH Stroke ENGINE!!!
THANKS TO ALL AT D&G Racing and API ..
WHO HAVE HELPED GET ME HERE over the years
Thanks to mick for building the engine,
thanks to Rob for building the gearbox,
Thanks to Nathan for fitting it all under the hood.....
AND BOB RAWLE FOR THE MAPPING and last and by no means least thanks to API Dave for talking me into it.......
THIS PROVES THAT API CAN BUILD A VERY FAST RELIABLE 10 SECOND ROAD LEGAL STREET CAR!!!!

plenty more to come from the famous.... "SONIC"

 

Well done mate good time

 

very well done, spec, classic, newage ??

 

STI V3 Type R 555 Special Edition. 2.1 Cosworth stroker, Kent Cams, vernia pulleys, lateral GT35 R Turbo, Nisbo 760cc injectors....2100 cc injectors to follow...!! Making apprx. 600 bhp at 2 bar at 100% duty on injectors

Thanks for your interest....

 

thats very nice, im getting my v5 sti type r built for the track, hope its as good as yours .

 

Thankyou all to the abundance of calls texts and emails, congratulating me on my weekend results.... watch this space as the car is developed.... for recorded bhp/ torque figures and .... to see if i can creep up that leader board????? cheers Danny

 

Sounds big $'s to get there though I guess ...

TX.

 

Congrats for the result and well done to all involved.

I don't think anyone on here would think or doubt that API can build and produce such results, just they don't talk about it as publicly as others. Never had an issue with David and his team and recommend them to anyone looking for a simple service to a drag car build.

Again top stuff to all

 

Well done!

 

Welcome to the 10 sec club!

 

well done mate

any weight saving on the car or totally standard?

and just pump v-power?

 

sounds nice !!

pop some pics up to let us see the beast

 

Well done Danny ....... how about a 10.65 when you get the Injectors sorted

 

That would be fun going up the "parade" in Leamington on a saturday night,,, about 5 seconds I guess.

 

well done mate

 

Not to much fun if you are behind him as it shoots flames about 3 ft long with the anti lag switched on .

Nice result for Danny ,especially as he did not even believe his Mrs ,when she told him he had done a 10 .

He has been threatening to do this for some time now ,so i'am looking forward to even more to come when he 's got it where he wants it spec wise .

 

YES indeed many many $'s over 9years.......not willing to disclose how much incase the wife finds out lol.............

 

im just proud to get api and I in the 10's, i had no doubt it was in the car.. it was others tuners that doubted...NOT I

 

thanks dude

 

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT M8

 

THANKS MATE .... ITS NICE UP HERE.... ISNT IT....LOL
IT'S TAKEN 18 YEARS OF DRAG RACING TO GET HERE STARTING BACK THEN WITH A 26.6 LOL IN A MK2 ESCORT

 

DRIVE FAST ON THE ROAD????? NO... NOT ME????

IF YOU DRIVE SLOWLY MORE PEOPLE SEE YOU!!! IM NOT VAIN ATALL?????

0-102MPH IN 7.2 SEC .......

IF I NAILED IT UP THE PARADE, BY THE TIME I'D HIT 3RD GEAR........
I'D END UP IN KENILWORTH?? LOL

 

SORRY MATE I DONT PUT PIC'S UP ON HERE!!!....

IT IS JUST A SHOPPING LIST FOR THEIFING LITTLE TW@?S!!!!!!

IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT GO?????????????

WE WILL BE AT SHAKESPEARE COUNTY RACE WAY ON THE 24TH OF JULY!!!

hopefully if api get the injectors it may be remapped by then????

please bob?

 

I could always have a word with the mayor. See if he would close the road off for a few hours so we could give it a try. It would sound nice with all the buildings either side........ bit Im waiting till I get mine back from David before I ask.

 

do you think he would remove the speed humps too as these may cause an issue!!! "SONIC" may just take flight right over the "Happy Diwali" banner

 

MAY BE MY FREIND......

it may do that as it is...??????

if Bob Rawle removes my bedding in 7800rpm limit.....

remmember it was only a shake down run,
.... on rain tyres 17's with on road suspension set up and with a full interior and 50 liters of fuel in the tank.....................

god i cant wait for next sunday

 

Congrats. I saw your car when I was last at APi. Looked very nice!

 

Thanks mate...now its in the 10's.... its time to make it concours! to be fair it aint that far away now lol
