Yep was a best of 12.4 and 118mph and considering what was going on with the auto (the poor thing) and that I was only running 5psi of boost, I'm pretty happy. I was really hoping that the auto would hold on so I could get a couple of good runs in before it's retired, but such is life.
Thanks for the videos! It's good to hear what the car sounds like from outside.

Looks the goods mate
I had my auto rebuilt by a guy in Melbourne, mind you have not driven the car since because of engine problems, but he claims will withstand upto 800hp, for around $3200 Even with the motor being crap, the shift points in the auto was amazing.

Looks the goods Grant. Good to see you finally got her down the strip, and still proving how much standard boxes will take. I dont think you'll be as lucky with the auto as you were with the T5 though.
Catch you round no doubt.

Thanks for the kind words guys and the video clips Matt.
Gary, thanks for the info. I hadn't heard about your car problems. I bet your looking forward to get it going again. Andrew, I've got a spare auto to sell to you. Has low klms, and the 2nd to 3rd change is very very smooth. ;) Gambit, it's been built to take a little more, but shooting for around 10psi. As it's a daily driver, I tend go for longevity vs out and out power on the tune (it's a age thing).
