welshpug 1,657 Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) Monaro wasn't trying p.s, its either a Monaro VXR OR a VXR8, not both one is coupe the other the later saloon and quicker Edited January 4, 2011 by welshpug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tesstuff 222 Posted January 4, 2011 No way was that Monaro trying. And if it was a VRX8 it would be even quicker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJA_GTi 0 Posted January 4, 2011 No way was that Monaro trying. And if it was a VRX8 it would be even quicker. Have to agree - They have 333bhp and 343lbs/ft Nice one for getting your car running sweet though mate fingers crossed nothing goes wrong for a while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gaz832 7 1 Cars Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) guy was going for it like, it was a black monaro vxr8 supercharged thing. road was soaking wet this wasnt a straight road by the way, corners came in to it . took me out on the straight but the corners was a different story. the guy actually indicated and flagged me over. was shocked with the speed we where going. guy thought the litltle pug was very impressive.

GLPoomobile 958 Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) It all makes sense now. Red hose/cable protection = +30bhp What's going on with the AFM? Please tell me you have something on there to stop dirt, even if it's just some old tights! And I'm guessing it's just a stop gap until you get a proper filter on there EDIT: just seen your "hidden" text regarding the temp filter.

hcmini1989 16 Posted January 4, 2011 supercharged VXR8 = more power than you at idle, let alone full chat Not all about the car though.Pilot can be a big factor.And the weather conditions as mentioned above so id beleive it.But whats going on witht the red thingys on the injector wires?.Each to there own mind , i would have picked blue ones And congrats with the car Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
