Just looking to see what the best times over 0-400m in a FWD Vauxhall/opel are in Oz?

i think the turbo astras are running low 14s/high 13s. it's not bad when we don't have the abundance of off the shelf performance parts or places like regal and courtenay.

13.9 for an astra turbo, with unichip, fmic and piping, and full exhaust.

I know there is an Astra doing 12's (and its a 4 door too!)

But overall... we have fairly midly modified Opel's here... the quickest Opel will likely be a Calibra as being an older car they would have had more engineering over the years.

Regal and courtenay.

Most of the tuning parts they get are for the Germans. Company like EDS motorsport and Vmax. Regal just sell these parts on mainly and claim the rewards.

Vmax being the better of the 2 as i feel there is more development work on these engines. At the moment they are running a E30 BMW with a 700PS/ 720Nm C20 LET. This car is there Demo car which has been used for much of their development.

My car is running 343bhp the last time it was rolling roaded but since then the boost is up to 16psi. I am aiming for 400bhp without the use of NOS.

My best 0-400m is 13.1 @ 114.8mph. Will be in the mid 12's if i can get the power down with the extra power.
