Laguna V6 vs Clio 16v

[nickg123]

Right,

What would you think is quicker?


A guy at my work drives a 3.0l V6 Laguna, with about 120,000 miles so its fairly loose!

My Clio has had a Hill Power Ind Kit, Scropion Exhaust + De-Cat, SuperChip, Cams, Ported polished and gas flowed head

Basically, there wasnt a lot in it - i was two up, he was alone - i kept up just about but thats as good as it got, the 16v was definitely not quicker!!!

Id have thought the Clio would have been quicker to 60 but after that the pulling power of that 3.0 v6 would catch up!

yeah, theyve gotta good top speed on them

 

[nickg123]

Well acceleration was equally impressive........

Saw your old GT Turbo in PGTi today - very nice.

I always found my valvers performance was greatly affected when i was any more than 2 up! the cuo isnt so bad, but those v6s are quick esp top end!

i wouldnt worry fella.

Anyway, yes the V6 was quick, but i sat on his tail and couldnt gain anything but he didnt really pull away either.......
