What was your 60' time? That mph should be enough to get deep into the 14's...

The std xr8 headers are underrated IMO. Definitely get a (fully adjustable) shiftkit and use it whenever you are driving "spiritedly". It'll save the gearbox from heating up to much and causing problems.....feels much better too.
2.3s 60', just dumping the throttle in drive. It just lit up tyres when I tried stalling it up on a few runs.
Anyone got any take off tips (I'm used to a manual).
