I need some help finding some pictures of a Tigra Turbo in Dark Orange Metallic, was featured in Redline not so long ago and competed in TOTB.
Just want some pictures of it really as I cant seem to find any
Videos would be ideal as well
Cheers

No one would notice it anyway, most people will only ever see the back bumper..

That’s an old pic he has changed the front bumper now so it sort of fits along the bottom. Yes the wing mirrors are gash. And no it does not need speedlines lol
As for the spec have no real idea as he is always changing it but if it ever goes on the rollers it would/should piss 500 + the shot he put on it a few days ago (he says its good) put it this way this thing when it was 1st built and running in on stock ecu and old smaller turbo and stuff and would not hold any boost past 6psi and would not rev over 3k overtook my 2.0 16v cav like it was stud still lol. It would have won at TOTB if he had got his ass into gear but marrrr.
will try and get the spec (but it should be in redline tbo)
He building a weapon at the mo (you will like it) in another shell thats not a let but might/should piss on this one

I will let you in on something as far as I remember it’s the GT-K 650
Which just so happens to be the same as this one (for size comparison)

CC uses water to cool the air charge. You will see proper drag racers using a charge cooler as the air is still cooled whilst the car is still.
IC uses airflow to cool the air. You won't find an IC is doing much good till your halfway down the strip, and the hot air from the engine bay is lost.

speckys is still faster
when danny was at brunters when he did 181mph fair play to him but it took him 3/4 of a mile to get to 169mph but yet at totb it only too specky 1km to do the same speed and that was not setting off flat out specky could have got it faster!!
