27-03-11, 20:36 GMT+10#10 Thanks guys. Not bad for a manual, low mount internally gated turbo set up. Only change from the nats was a set of standard rear springs. All in all very happy with the outcome. Probably has a little more left in the tank but had a few minor issues. Leads popping off and also got low on juice on my last 2 runs. Other than that I'm extremely happy and ready to book my next trip. I'll get some vids up later.

28-03-11, 19:09 GMT+10#18 Cheers Jake. I'm still chasing the ninja but keen for some more runs sooner than yearly. Daz I have Jakes old wagon diff 3.9.1 apparently. Made it to the line on various runs between 6700-7000rpm which is where the limiter is set. Only bashed it once at the line.

28-03-11, 19:26 GMT+10#19 Isn't peak power around 6200rpm?, going to 3.7's would drop revs 350ish rpm, going
to 3.45's would drop 800ish rpm
cheers
