SLO AU XR8 · 09-05-2009, 02:15 AM

What is the fastest stock AU1 XR8? I ran a 14.32 on wednesday night with a 4wd systems Lokka and 255's, stock headers, acts and a 3" single system, anyone know if there is any faster?

I think Storkys S1 XR8 man ran 14.2 with more or less the same mods. will try and find the post when he won the DYO at heathcote a couple of years back.
But very good times from a S1 for sure is it Man. or Auto. ?

Its a Manual, on a side note, i ran that in 93% humidity.
MADED6, the Lokka is great, can be a little harsh at low speed, thats it

I think Cobra's 'bone stock' AU1 XR8 did insane times, 14.1 or something possibly (I can't remember)

14.1 is a freakish time for a 185kw S1.. considering the 220 guys struggle to touch that.

Not quite, it was a 14.594 @ 94.40mph. Still listed as his best time in the AU Power and Times thread. Still an awesome time for a stock AU1.

And I am not sure any AU1 XR8's left the factory with a LOKKA or an aftermarket cat-back :P

I had the fastest LPG powered stock AU1 XR8 around, with a few mods. Can't remember the time, but it was the fastest one in the whole country with my rego number.

id like to know what the hype is about having the fastest stock powered car.

maybe when they are brand new and you get better times than what they advertise it might mean something.

i guess its the same as ex highway patrol cars, i dont understand what the fuss is about them either.

Agreed - hence my somewhat tongue in cheek post!

i wasn't actually meaning to say that mine was stock, or the fastest, just to compare what i ran vs the fastest stocker

The original post wasn't worded too well, although it was 1.15am when i made this thread. It was meant to be an inquiry as to what the fastest known time from a stock S1 XR8 was, so I knew whether mine was running good/decent/awesome....

you time shows it is running well, chuck it up on a dyno to check afr's there could be some improvements with a flash tune.
