I was wondering if the owner was on here or any one knew where i could find out details of the car seemed fairly impressive as only ever came across a few basically standard RS Turbos before.

It was a Red G reg (i think) had a non welding in roll cage, engine advantages sticker and some evil looking and sounding anti lag by the looks and sounds of things.

I was behind it from Purleigh then until the A12 when it turned colchester bound onto the A12, just real interested in what spec it is


Many Thanks

 

hehe


that was me


is just a standard 1.6 cvh matey, running cossie management

 

Was that anti lag you were running mate ?? As saw some nice pops and bangs and flames

What type of power does it run and any idea of the weight ??

 

yes mate, it does run ALS.


powers unknown not finished with the mapping yet, and regarding weight no ideas sorry

 

No worries was just seeing what I was up against as you were pulling on me but I could just keep up

 

no worries pal

 

go gareth

 

what ya got mate

 

lol... yes yes gareth...

as above matey wot u got?

 

 

i had some kid racing me from purleigh area all the way thru to chelmsford the other day, they were well up my arse until the straights in their bloody done up 1.1 saxo. i pissed over them tho wen they tried comin past on the a414 up to the army and navy. oh yea, i was in my transit work van to!

 

I just have a 100% bog standard 106gti

 

and you could just keep up with this turbo

 

the way he points out bog standard inicates it wernt

theres noway u'd keep up

 

would like to add, i wasnt having it into the corners as Aaron, steve or anyone thats been out in it propa will know that my brake balance is shite at mo and wasnt going into any corner fast as didnt fancy swaping ends

sounds like am making excuses

 

should of lured him onto the a12 gareth, then it would be bye bye

 

zetec-turbo
Any more pics of the car then fella. Sounds the dogs Bollox

 

i very much doubt it tbh. ive been in gareths car a fair few times now, and my m8 has a black 106gti an sittin in the pug is nothing compared to bein piloted along in the turbo

 

Im not lying lol 100% standard the only thing different to stock is some decent tyres and super unleaded.

As I said before he was pulling on me on the straights.

Also people that have been in a standard 106gti know how good they handle. But its still not slow by any means and you just have to remember while it may only have 120-130bhp it only weighs 880kg-ish

 

well theres ya answer then.

small, very light, 120-130bhp, and good round corners. gareth has said he was lettin right off for the bends as his brake force distribution is a little upset at mo due to no weight at the back of the car, but then he was leavin u on the straights. makes perfect sense to me

 

yeah he was going really slow into the corners, but still he was hardly losing me on straights just pulling a few lengths on me.

 

 

Funny read.

 

Course mate

 

bit of a old post brought back to life lol. Still, funny reading mind u

for anyone who knows that road, course gareth wouldnt have left him completely behind on the straights, theres hardly any straights along there really. As said, if the pug had followed him onto the a12 it would have been bye bye little french car

 

 

Doubt it mate

 

Kop2381- what do u doubt mate?

 

I love that engine bay
