That's great news!
For those that aren't regestered.
A big congratulation goes to the team at Mike’s Dyno Tuning. Tim Jetson’s turbocharged EA Falcon ran its first 9-second passes, the best being a 9.96/140 on what is a very basic turbo conversion and engine combination which goes to show persistence pays off.
Another car of interest, John Colaidis' AU motor powered mustang ran a 11.91.

Doubt it Bret. That car is being built to drift.

Lol...I very much doubt 500rwhp is enough to do a 9 in a full weight E-series! esp a manual one with no slicks!
I'll prob end up doing the tried and tested PerformanceForums Supra stylez and running mid 12s at 135mph haha.
I think with traction and good gearing 500rwhp could get into the 10s, but I don't think my car ever will. Although it is very tempting to try...
