how does a well modded escos weigh up against a ferrari 355? what sort of mods/power would shame the 355?

Thoughts

i think the 355 does 13s 1/4s and has about 380bhp? 0-60 in 4.5

a well modded escort shouldnt have any true issues against a 355

Well i dusted a 355 no probs in my sapph with 340 BHP..

They have no torque ............ and must be a similar weight.

So i would say a 400 BHP Escos wont be far off..

Walt

what do you think i will make if set up properly (bhp fly) 308s rs500 cooler, t35, full zorst, walbro pump, k&n, 3 bar, -31, and am going to be ringing HG up about a rebuild soon!

I had a 355 spider pinned to my rear bumper a while back. I accellerated hard off a roundabout and he pulled out into the the other lane, probably expecting to come past me. At the end of the dual carriage way, he ended up having to pull back in behind me.

Id say the dual carriage way is about 1/4 of a mile and uphill. Obviously if the road was longer, he'd of got past me, but i was really impressed with how mine went, and was expecting it to come past me easily to be honest.

I would assume that about 350 bhp would have no problems keeping in front at all really.

I have a 400BHP escos and have driven a F355 and I've gotta say, they aren't built purely for straight line power!! They handle unbelievable and the noise is just awesome. Still would prefer a 360 though.

well I would have chosen a F430 stradale or a F40 LM GTE more than a modena.. but dreams never come true

cahzz

dreams DO come true, TRUST me!!

Walt

does anyone know the number for Harvy Gibbs? and have an idea of how much a re-build would cost to handle 350bhp?

A SAFE build, £5k, but can be done for less
