Nothing special. 12.1 @ 126 mph. Using sh!t tyres, will run again in a few weeks with either street slicks or full slicks. Car is manual also.

It was making around 230rwkw (standard VL heads are a huge restriction) without the nitrous, we started with a larger shot of 180hp on the dyno and we shattered a piston when we pushed that button. Motor is being rebuilt and its sold to a mate and it's going into his vl calais with some very big plans for it.

Not a fan of the garnish, but I'm in love! That is exactly what I have planned my Berlina to look like.
