I couldn't believe how well the 220 went when I drove my mates.
Massive difference compared to my 200!

Yeah I've seen videos of apparently stock ones pulling low to flat 14s. Not sure if that's BS or not though.

Not BS. My AU S1 185kw pulled a 14.3 with no power enhancing mods.

The au windsors are heaps better than the e series ones, even the one in my lane, which I think is only rated at 175kw, so only ten more than E series Windsor, is just stronger everywhere. Even though its a big heavy old bitch it would easily flog any of the E series V8s I've had.
I guess those gt40s really do make a big old difference.

wow ok than that's awesome. Mines Automatic would it be much slower than a manual? I am guessing that 14.3 is in a manual?
