76er Swallowtail K-Jet turbo build

[Oneofthegreats]

Oooh Yeah. JayJay and I drove round till 4am the other night tuning the rocco. Its proper quick now.
Got myself an innovate wideband lambda nad display and its the grouse.
Took heaps of fuel off the pommie tune. UK air must be a different density to Oz.
I`m taking it circuit racing on Sat, but after that, a visit to the quarter will be in order I reckon.
I still wanna see your car go with a TDI gearbox. I`m tempted to send you one for appraisal

Good stuff Matt

I knew it would only be a matter of time before you got yourself a Wideband meter! Well worth the outlay 100% & can be claimed on Tax too!

Good choice going with the Innovate Motorsports one. Love mine. Well only when I was tuning it. Now just sits in its box in the shed till I build a good motor.


I reckon the TDI box may slow it down or either that, I'll break it!

I reckon it would be a good choice though considering the km's I do & highway cruising, but then I'm not really interested in tall as gearing & crazy top speed. For now I'll live with the 3500rpm cruising! haha

What Gearbox code is it again?


Good luck with it at the track & look forward to seeing some 1/4 pass' too!

Damn I only just saw this!

Great to hear it all worked for you! Solid times too.
I appreciate that you're doing what a lot of people say and think can't be done; but **** those other people because you're proving them wrong!

Good on you for doing it in full street trim! Would've got a good laugh out of a few spectators seeing such a Nanna looking car haul ass down the quarter.

Awesome work man!

Haha I was just about to say that he looked like Billy Gibbons! Nice work again mate, I'm happy to say you've proved my expectations wrong about your drag times!!!

Cheers peoples for all the comments

No worries at all!

As I've said before. Its one thing I don't ever like to BS about is, is how much power a car makes & how fast it can/should run.

The equation is simple. It takes so much power to push a car that weigh's so much over that distance to that terminal speed.

With more & more practice & time spent at the drags, you end up with a good general idea of what it takes no matter what the car is


Got to ask! What was your honest prediction?
