9.1 seconds to do a quarter mile and his mods would probably take a week to write down, so do a search

right come on guys. lets go esy on the new guy.

pretty much andyf's car looks more or less standard, from the outside, however under the bonnet and inside the cabin is a whole different story.

its completely stripped, and i mean stripped no seats (bar drivers) no door cars no window winders, no sound proofing etc.

engine wise again is a fully custom job, i'm not full up on what the engine spec is, but its running bigger block, bigger turbo, biger injectors, the manifold has be reversed, and then all the associated requiremenst to cope with huge power, aka uprated rods, pistons etc etc

Engine at last count was 2.33

TWO Apexi ECUs

Manifold is a custom made large plenum which is not reversed.

Eight injectors

Large Garrett front mounted turbo

Nitrous oxide injection

Highly customised installation

Hollinger dog box

It has two seats to qualify as a road car - both are superlight aluminium shells

Underfloor smoothing

Quaife diff at the front, I think Modena centre and rear.

16in wheels with Mickey T road legal drag tyres

Lots and lots of detail work.

Definately not reversed at present. It was and on Sunday it was not

Power rumoured to be around 650bhp without NOS. The secret is very low weight

He has already run into the low 9s without NOS
