I think you are talking about the Mikes Dyno Tuning turbo white EA, the one with the massive fatties on the back, that thing runs like 10's or something almost into the 9's as ive read

On another note if you are going round the track and car is unrwc and you are going to drive it home do yourself a favour and take your number plates off......... TMU guys are watching........ eg cars that dose

They were at the end of the main straight today and their cars were parked out of sight from the track.

Last Easter Nats the Police set up on Monday Afternoon if you exited left onto Princess Highway..........

So tough EA88 is it a 5.8 conversion or a turbo conversion or is turbo or is it not turbo? I don't get what's going on with your SVO.

There are at least 3 different magazine articles that I can think of going around with plenty of photos and information on the Mike's Dyno's car.

I only got out for 2 sessions today due to some issues with the blower belt and then had to go to a family lunch. The Slowea has some engine dramas and was trailered home today, we will pull the head off and see whats the issue is in the next few days. Hope to see some faces there tomorrow.
