Just got a call from Spoolman at Calder. He has just gotten back from Sydney with a few new tweaks to the banana yell F6 (even I love these things!) and has just run 11.66@122.18mph (Mauz at the wheel) on street rubber!
Remember, this is a daily driver and can run this any day of the week! Stunning!! :sm_drool:

Been a busy 24 hours just got back from Sydney 3.30 am this morning, got up today changed the oil, picked up my buddy Mauz and off to Calder we went.
11.66@122 – 1.88, 60 foot, 97mph mid track stayed the best time of the night. Also 11.69@122 and 11.72@123mph. Autotech Engineering what a great bunch of hard working people, and the tuning skill and effort Spiro put to practise on my car the results speak for themselves. Although he was a little disappointed because the car still isn’t tuned they way he would have liked as valve springs are an issue now. APS Intercooler went in with a new actuator & re-tune, retaining factory x over pipe and air box. Edit, injectors, exhaust being the other mods. Car was run with full weight dvd, amps and screens stayed in the car. Only the spare was taken out. will post slip and dyno sheet soon. Thanks to the following for there ongoing help, Autotech (Spiro), Market Place Autos (Rod), my gun driver Mauz and the AFF Community.
