how can that car be 700+bhp with a piddly 3" bore exhust and no (i dont think) screamer pipe?

700+ on dyno, but in car?

3" is fairly restrictive even at 500 isnt it?

Nothing beats it down a racetrack, well maybe the 800 bhp Ford GT40 does....

That Cossie is pure magic Just when you think peeps cant do a lot more too them awesome

Not sure about the WRC style bumper on Escos's, seen too many MK4 RST with replica ones on has spoilt it for me

This is probably going to sound funny, but I dont think I would like to see that one go as it is kinda the ultimate, just in case it was a disappointment

Awesome car, might have to buy the PF
