Well done Mark, you can't help yourself, knew you'd be back into it. For a change, it's great to see people heading to Sydney for tunes. A lot of us know how hard the trip is to do in a day. The up hill run home is a killer! Big numbers mate, pull some of that hardware out and it will improve, keep it up!

Looking at your 60's Mark i would assume your tyres were going away.

At least with this tune we managed to get from 1.98 down to 1.88 but need a low 1.7 . Used 28 psi in the rear, once we leave the line on the boost it will test the tyres out. Quote:

My centre rubber on the locating rear end bolt is flogged out. Spoke to Rod about it the other day, he said we need to weary using anything but rubber as it needs to have some give there, with our heavy cars we don't want to break the bolt. Big job whole rear end gets dropped out and needs to come apart.

Well done Mark and Mauz. That is sensational for an everyday driver F6.
As for Spiro, well done champ. I'm now really looking forward getting the APS phase 2 kit next week.

Hey Mark! Thats great news! And well done to Mauz for great driving! He should know how to drive them! Hehe. Well done to Spiro at Autotech too - I have personally seen him and his work in action - one very professional dude who knows his stuff and goes out of his way for his customers! I wont forget how he helped us out in Sydney when we were stuck.
You do have a great car Mark, I love it. Cant wait to see it in action again. I am just wanting a Typhoon more and more... BFYB you cant beat it, and it looks so classy too. Awesome! Jac and Eamon
