Stage 4 is another level again.

Once you build the motor you can pretty much go ballistic.

Dont know why they didn't go with a custom tune initially instead of a Revo flash tune with all thos modifications.

I think the answer is that this car was sponsored and this was a "standard" stage 3 package. I think if you watch the video you see Moog answer the question saying he wasn't chasing a number but more about how the car makes you feel. If you go chasing numbers then it can lead to disappointment.

Also he's now got a great daily driver with supercar performance. It ran an 11.6 1/4 mile with 255kwaw and they bumped it up to 277kwaw so would now be in low-mid 11's I'm guessing.

Remember it's a daily driver and not built for doing a particular event/drag/track/etc. He ran full road weight with road tyres and 98 fuel which if you were trying to go fast down the drag strip you'd strip it out, run drag radials and E85/methanol. It would do 10's for sure but then you'd end up with a drag car and not a daily driver.

I reckon that car would do lower if it had a proper mechanical diff up front and rear, even on the same tyres.
The LC needs to be set a wee bit higher so there's a tiny bit of slip on the wheels as it comes off the mark.

10 second dailys do exist

Look at XR6 turbos, stock motor, stock the works just head studs, billet oil pump gears, valve springs and big boost. Even the stock ZF gearbox loves it, no need for fancy clutch packs or valve bodies in this case.

Xr6 turbos wre only good on a preped track, on normal road cant get the power down.

I had a 300rwkw G6ET and it struggled

Looks like an absolute hoot to drive - damn fast car. Looks tough too. That thing would chop just about anything on the road with AWD, DSG and that much power. Id love to chop all the typical XR6 T/SS bogans with this.

True - i raced several modified XR6T's when i had my MK6 Golf R which had 211kw atw. I would nail them off the line, then depending on how powerful they were they would reel you in but you were well above 100kph by that time so it was basically time to back off. My car was a 6 speed manual too, so a DSG would do even better.

The Falcon's are a heavy car, primitive suspension, no LSD and they are under tyred for a big powerful car.

True. My old Golf R made 208kw on a Mainline AWD dyno and then i went to a dyno day in Sydney about a month later and the car made 211kw on a Dyno Dynamics AWD dyno.
