Im sure the BA/BF would definately have more in it.


I dont know, it says stock motor? does this mean stock cam and factory headers? also Id say stock 3.08 diff? Its just a guess but if its got a stock diff ratio then the 60 foot would be shocking and a good trap speed for the 14.6.

considering they were a 16.4ish car when new, dropping it to 14.6 isnt too shabby.

it all depends on the exact supporting mods really.

A 3000rpm stall and 3.9 diff will transform it.
I thought the auto xr6 ran at high 15s, well from my personal experience with my xr8 i could dispatch cv8 monaros and even a gts i came against so id look at the motor and see how worn it is just in case.

No doubt, its a very good effort.

Took me a fair bit to get my time down, when i first got my car back with the blower, the auto was slipping a fair bit, took me ages to get under 14's.

yes auto xr6 did run under the 16 mark, but the information that it was an xr6 only came to light after I made my post, which reffered to a standard falcon time.

I just discovered (some may already be aware) that the most powerful homologated car in our solar system uses centrifugal supercharger's (note i said charger's- theres 2!).

take that turbo boys :P

it also makes more NM than it makes HP :shock: I am of course going to start saving now...

Raptor have twin centrifugal supercharger on a v6 Holden motor happening but it will take time.
They are pushing one into the other then through an intercooler to the motor,it will make something like 20 psi at the inlet manifold.Should go ok,cept it's a Holden.
Yeah i'll dig up an old thread here with a print out or i can email you one,my printer isn't talking to my pC for some reason.

Twin raptor charged would be awesome :D

Wish i had thought of that but you would need a 10km belt for that set lol, i should have tried moving the altenator to an idler pulley.

cmon cooky get your car tuned mate trust me with the cooler weather now its going to put out some serious numbers.

Rotrex mate. the next generation of traction drive centrifugal S/C. boost comes on low down like a roots and it can spin up to 200000rpm at WOT. depending on the setup of course.
