Not sure on the fastest FTO, but a stock 95 GPX manual should do mid 15's down the quarter.

I think the fastest in the world is MORITAKU's Mivec Turbo . according to his webpage he is doing 0-400 metres in 11.9 seconds. 8O

I think the fastest at the moment in Aus would be Dannyboy's car. I think he pulled a 13.2 with street tyres. He should easily get into the mid 12's with slicks.

There should be few discussions on two GR turbo FTO in this forum, but both are still a mystery & the old/new owner haven't provide any time sheet or proof yet, we don't even know if those cars really exist.

And here's the link for Dannyboyau Turbo FTO, it was originally a Limited Edition Nakaya tune. But now I don't what should we call it heheeh

My white fto with the old spec engine running 1 bar boost managed -
0-60 - 5.6s, 0-100 - 11.2s, 1/4Mile - 13.37s@116mph on road tyres.

The red fto has run a 14.1 @100.7mph but the tiptronic holds back the times a little. In gear times feel quick but we havent run any GPS timing for it yet.

There is a guy in the UK with a GR turbo who claimed a 12.8 1/4mile and 330bhp power output but he hasn't been able to prove either to date.

The Red FTO does have an original 6A13 MIVEC engine in it so it isn't cheating :P

yes he does. Plans are currently underway on building another GR turbo too which has a target power of around 300bhp and will be keeping the original fto powerplant in place.
