that calibra turbos are rapid and mint for a cheap price?just found out that they are as safe as a vlovo brick and that they can be tuned to 3oobhp for under £650http://classifieds.clubcalibra.net/s...2&cat=5&page=1

 

can they bollocks

 

they are fast when transplanted into corsa's or nova's.

 

 

old gf borrowed a 4*4 turbo from a mate in her work

at the time it cost him £1700 to insure it but he was selling

disco biskets @ the time and working the door

i new she was a good driver mental for a girl

her nickname was ak47

took a left bend 90 degrees at GODSPEED imm thinking where dead

CAR WAS ON RAIL TRACKS never flinched just flew through it

but ive been told gearboxs get fooked up major time and £2000 to replace

 

transmission is made of cadburys chocolate

overall its shite

 

i no its a wank overall car but for 1400quid its ok.the transfer boxes are chuklit but the engines keep going for ever.transfer boxes can be get rid of all blanking plugs for the diffs only cost £!00

 

Yes they can!

 

Its still a cavalier in disguise.

 

which in a word say it all .. ok thats not one word.. its a few

 

TBH, the cavalier is a far better car IMHO

 

At least its not a diesel cavalier with SRi 130 stickers like one near me.

 

Cav 4x4 turbo all the way!

 

Used to be a blue astra gte look alike near me. one of the mk3 ones with nos stickers on etc and it was a diesel. Tried to race me once when I had my corolla to which I just laughed at him

yeah ... like the bloke near me .. had it dyno'd at 265 after fitting big intercooler, hybrid turbo, and a cam.

now quotes it at 310 bhp cos it feels that fast as he has added a chip thing is everytime i have met him on the road the cossie has showed him a very clean pair of heels

bloody slowarsed calibra driver

and i can tell you he has spent a lot more than 650 quid to get it that far ...so looks like chip should be in the tuning business

 

y dont you get a granada cosworth for that money?

 

wtf

 

Robs car made 300bhp for that money.

Just cause one person doesnt know what they are doing doesnt mean it isnt possible.


All you need to get to the 300bhp ballpark from a LET engine is:
decent intercooler (or a very cold day on the standard one!)
a set of chips
higher fuel pressure
a relayed live feed to the fuel pump

The engine and turbo and injector and fuel pump are all capable of 300bhp from the factory.
