Default Grechie's 13.797 @ 157km/h N/A 4L EA!!!

Hey Guys

Some of you's know of my car already and some of you dont, its a EA mocked up to be a EB GT.

She has NO HEADWORK, just shaved to raise comp, ACL bottom end, Bored Out TB, Pod Filter out the bonnet, FULL 3 inch exhaust, and a Wade1673 Cam with 3.7 LSD and a EA-T5 running on a STOCK TICKFORD ECU with AU injectors.

I bought some semi slicks off a member the other week, and put them on for tonite, wasnt looking like i was going to get much runs being there was STACKS of cars...

Headed down with my mate josh whos a member on here, and managed 3 before they shut the gates.

1st run was with 22PSI in the semi slicks, i dumped it 4000rpm and got axle tramp and wheel spin with a average shift into 3rd...managed 14.076 @ 159.79KM/H with a 1.998 60 Footer, then we downed the pressure to 18PSI and i did a btter burnout and managed a 13.902 @ 160.91KM/H with a 1.909 60 Footer this time hitting the rev limiter in 4th at a decent distance from the finish, so i just held it.
Then i managed a 13.797 @ 157.16KM/H with a 1.921 60 Footer and i was silly enough to attempt 5th which i missed so i beilive i lost some KM/H trying to, maybe a 13.6 was in stores if i held the limiter in 4th instead...


Either Way, i have PROVED to all the haters out there, that the RWKW dyno readings ive been pulling lately arent just numbers, its felt real quick, and lately pulled 177RWKW thanks to paul from CVE, just by mucking with the timing a bit.

Im VERY happy with this time, as i beilive its ONE of the fastest N/A 4L i6 times out there, (up with OED666 etc)

So i just wanna say thanks to the people who beilived in me, and STFU to the people that doubted me and said, "run it, no way a stock head can flow over 160rwkw"

Cheers

-Grechie

P.S ill post up the time slips when i scan them some time tommorow!

Congrats mate, Awesome time and a fairly decent 60.
Very impressive for the limited mods you have..
You surely do probably have one of the fastest, if not the fastest I6 street driven N/A falcon on the forum.... WELL DONE!

Any more mods planned? plan to raise the bar higher?

Mate ...a huge congratulations is in order.. : : this is just fantastic and wonderful to see...I have to dissagree on a few things though : The biggest power gain was from my old injectors right? hehe

Seriously though that is a fantastic effort and the knockers??? Who gives a crap!!

You must be getting crap some where else as I dont think we doubted your rwkw as you have always been very forward on supllying dyno results and 1/4 times

Nice work - "real racers" who want times use slicks.............13's with a EA no Turbo is AWESOME

So your using a WADE 1673 not a WADE 1673-977B?

Congrats Grechie, that's an awesome time, puts the B-series NA boys to shame.

It's such a great feeling when you crack the next second down, when I hit 13's it was one the best nights of my life. I bet you are still buzzing?

Well done champ!

Thats a great result man, those EAs get no love and much doubt usually. For what are some pretty minor mods youve done well.

Congrats

Thats Fantastic! Its amazing what diff gears can do during mid track.
I had standard 3:4:5 XR LSD with standard wheels and street treads. I did a 1.8 60ft and crossed the line smack bang on 160kms and I had 158rwkws

my time was heaps slower with a 14.2

So again Congrats on your time and considering your mods shows the e series isnt dead yet.

You could upload it to Youtube, it will compress the video down for you, it will take a LONG time to upload 76mB though.
