Hi all,
I thought it would be interesting to have a thread where people can post their performance times and mods. Might help newbies like me to get a feel for which mods are effective and which are not. I suggest we use a format similar to the following. Please be realistic with your times, eg not downhill in the middle of winter with air temps of 4 degrees and no rear seat 
The focus here is obviously the inline 6, but if V8 owners want to post then that's fine. Just make sure you note that it's a V8! CAR: 1996 EL Fairmont Ghia, Series 1 255,000 kms (no rebuild) 4.0 I6, Auto PERFORMANCE: 8.5 secs 0-100 km/h (one person, half tank of fuel, standard unleaded) Unknown 1/4 mile PERFORMANCE MODS: 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust, cat-back, two mufflers, rear resonator Electronic shift kit Please disable signatures as well so we can fit more results to a page ... easier to browse through them this way. Let us know what you've got! Cheers, Tim
