Engine? Weight? Chassis? Suspension?
Ive thought the VTS is quicker from racing both but figures are identical. So what are the differences? :confused:
Hey, Corsa SRi, u think its quick now, put ur original airbox back on & itll throw u back in ur seat in 1st & 2nd. :cool:
Im putting my PiperX IK back on with home-made heat shield as i cant live with-out the sound, but the K&N will be slowing u down mate.
Well ive beat 2 106s in my more or less standard Valver & would only expect to get 16 dead on a good run.
VTSs are faster than 106 GTis IMO & with my experiance racing them.
Rear spoiler? First ive heard.
Yeah the left centre dial is ur dipstick, i always let mine warm up to atleast 60 degrees on the oil temp gauge before taking it over 3.5k.
Pressure should be up to 6 bar when first started in the morning untill warmed up & when taken over 6k revs. High...
What does RWYB stand for peeps?
How much does it cost at Santa Pod & York?
The PODs a bit far if my gearbox goes but would like to see urs in action at York Nick. :cool: My aim is 16! :D
To be honest the screaching of tyres at standing starts is the perfect launch, however every other car ive driven i could make it do that over 95% of the time but with my Valver i can sometimes bog down. :confused:
Actually thats probably jus changing my wheels so often & getting used to it &...
No, jus if the Viper works how it should then thats a lot of forced air over standard & i was told the 16v ECU works on a table relation to revs (or somethin along those lines), so it may need to be pumping more fuel at lower revs or somethin.
Maybe being paranoid but i read it somewhere & it...
Big for me Steve, especially after pumping my 15s up to 35psi it can get a lot more grip round corners in the dry; actually feels more likely to oversteer! :cool:
Ill hav some phase 2 16v alloys with 195, 50, 15 not great tyres (but u could fit urs) available in a few weeks if ur interested mate; as i know ur in Manchester. Look better than the Fox wheels IMO. PM me if interested, Mikey.
Yeah, said itd be ready by May, try phoning them. I think the forced induction might be too much for my standard ECU to manage and not run lean, so keeping my PiperX till some1 else has tried it. ;)
Have u tried takin it up to 6900?
If u change at 6400 how can u bounce of the limiter? Im thinking the reason power peaks earlier is cause uve got ur original box on. 6.25 is silly quick u know?
Ha, im sorry but its the only car ive drove which has ever done it plus why would u need a racing gearbox if u wanna drive a standard car to its limit. Thats like saying the engine isnt made to be taken up to 6k revs after some1 blows theirs up! :o
Thought the lux was jus the luxuary pack, eg. leather seats?
Earlier Escort had a T3, later 1 had a T25, but read somewhere that they had the same 0-60 of 5.7 i think.
