What's the lag like mate and do you think its worth every penny you spent on it?

Also how does it pull in 1st and 2nd? Does it wheel spin like crap and struggle to get the power down?

 

[GarethM]

very nice dude, bet it shifts!!!

atm theres not much lag really! it seems like i allways have to be in a lower gear! only up to 40! after that it pulls in every gear! so far iv took it to 130ish but im told by bbpt it should do just over 160mph! mad! it get there fast too!or mybe its just me iv never bin in a turbo before!0-60 is about 5-6 atm its not run in yet so il just be taking it easy for now!and yh worth every penny!:approve:

How much was it in the end inc vat all in, if you don't mind me asking? PM me if you don't want to say over here.

Why haven't you taken the bonnet liner off, let people hear everything it has - sound deadening = extra weight

fastest cheese grater in the west!

 

[stevo172-RWD]

heres a pic of the b4 and after graft-went in at 171.1hp@103mph/6884 1/min torque 148lbs/ft and out at 250.8bhp@102mph/6564 1/min torque 223lbs/ft! that just for running her in! want more power!

 

[cK]

Very impressive. Massive torque gain as predicted. Bet it throws you back in your seat big time.

Nice job! (not sure on that top plastic cover bit though I'd leave it off!)

Looks really tidy - just take it easy running it in - you don't want it to go pop :S

[Tiger]
