What times can a RWD acheive?

0-60
0-100
std qtr
top speed (unlimited road)

Is that power a shit yourself kinda power?..I have had a T4 8 green conversion but it was all wrongly specced i see now,so most probably only got 430 max This engine is specced for a GT35 so a T4 will bve more than happy!!

 

Deffo No!!
Have around 530bhp in low boost & it feels painfully slow, the fun starts around 650bhp which gives a reasonable turn of speed.
Rod

 

lol at Rod at 530bhp feeling slow. Wonder what baby stage 3 would feel like to you Rod

In answer to your question Phil; If you've never had 500 bhp then it will feel fast. I thought Rod's was immense on Loew boost with Mark driving until he said watch this Rich. Boost control to full and we left YUM like he wasnt moving Most awesome ride ive ever had.

 

Rodney why do you persist on being like you are?You quoted in a PM you couldnt like me on the BB due to i would guess "politcal reasons"...you are not the be all and end all mate...and TBH i really hope someone comes along and gives you serious competition to get you off that pedestal you THINK you are on You and i know Mark Shead is the REAL hero who built/specced DROVE your car to the max do you hear him on here acting a child NO..cause he got YOU

Now get them FUCKING injectors from up your arse in the post

 

Here we go again

 

500bhp should give 180+mph, mid to low 12s (traction dependent) over the quarter and 0-100 in under 9s. o-60 should be under 5, but traction again is an issue.

 

should break the 11's with the right suspension setup.

and deffo in the 4's

but as mike said getting the horses down is the problem.

good suspesion, good back end setup and everything setup properly.

 

my set up will be similar to mike's and rod's old set up and its real fast but can see more power being an option in the future

 

Bosch-Man, i'd say it all depends what you're used to, how/what you drive etc. I guarentee you that if you came in my little slow xr2 i could scare the shit out of you on the muddy single track back lanes round here at night. But in a straight line it's about as fast as

 

Well my actual cars are all over 300bhp and i have had cossies pushing IMO upto 450bhp....looking for another 100bhp so hopefully it will scare me enuff not to want bigger power Fooking rodney saying its slow and 650 is ok

 

Phil,

You have to understand that a standard cossie would feel slow after you have had a stage 3, so in terms off Rod saying 500 bhp is slow does actually make sense after piloting a 650/700 bhp cossie.

 

The deal with the injectors is off chum !!

 

ROFL

 

Thats the mentality of MAD is it Rod?...Ok to dish the shit but cant take any back?

If you feel like this then consider all ties with MAD (as you are spokesperson) cut!

How old is that geezer?

 

Not like one of your threads to turn to mud slinging shit Phil lol

 

As for your question Phil
Imo you will only feel the benefit of anything much over 500hp if you use the car on track or just want bragging rights down the pub or on forums etc...

 

Totally agree although I would actually say 400bhp is more than enough in a road cossie in 99.99999999999999% of situations!

 

That will do for me

 

Thought so
Why go to the expense then? Just cut the bonnet cable and lie like a trooper

 

I bet mark is going to be devestated to hear that

 

Spadge.....its spend money on the car or the missus...i aint that stupid

 

Lee i did actually mean to type 400 and not 500

 

I see you have mastered the art of lying already Phil

 

Porkie i'd agree my escos should be around 380bhp and feels well strong hence why i am leaving as that...plus i love anti lag

The sapphire is my daily drive so i want something thats reliable but OTT and the T4 scenario suits that

 

I don’t think I have an honest 500HP and I can’t honestly answer you when it comes to 0-60, 0-100 or top speed, but I can say I have run an 11.8 @ 124mph 1/4 mile with my 2wd Saff on street tyres. See here for more info, vids and pics……
