I didn't want to reply to this but MO you're talking absolute bollox. I worked as a ralliart technician and loved the evo to bits, great cars and fantastic engines, power delivery fantastic obviously only if running correctly. As Chip said pound for pound go swedish! Saab 9000 is one of my favourites! My best mate has a 2.3 running a GENUINE 400BHP at the wheels all built on a very tight budget and it is an absolute monster!
I don't think personally Fords and Jap cars can be compared, they have different characteristics. Personally if I wanted say 400bhp and was chasing figures i'd be starting with an Evo. On a personal note Mo I think your full of shite!

Ive been thinking of selling all the overpriced YB crap from my sierra and putting a Saab lump in instead, SBD do an adaptor that puts it straight onto the gearbox, so just a case of making a few mounts and an exhaust and its done.
Only if it ends in a 12.99 or better quarter

Id have said the jap cars would be better if its pure power your after e.g. the rb26 skyline lumps, 2jz supras, vtecs and the vg30dett from the 300zxtt
dont get me wrong,, i love cossies, rs2000's, capris, fiestas and all that but if it was power i was looking for then it would be a jap car.
.....and then if you want MORE power then itd have to be one of these http://www.nelsonracingengines.com/engines/chevy.html nothing can beat a big twin turbo/superchargd bigblock v8 for brute force
and MO... shut up mate your starting to sound fucking boring now, you constantly go on about your supersonic rs turbo which no one really gives a shit about strap your phone or camera to the steering wheel, take it to an open road, floor it then upload it onto here...
lambo killer.... my arse!
whats the fastest car youve been in ?

this seems to have turned into a bit of a yb bashing thread lol so as we are on passion ford ill stick up for it ( so dont all jump on me ) now im not stupid so i no its an old out of date engine but it still works! and i know it carnt live with mega power supras and skylines ( 700 bhp + ) but it has to be said between 300 bhp and 600 bhp it can stll more than hold its own a thread like this should come with a free ride in rod or ads car to give an example of the fact that in the right hands as a fast road car engine the yb is still more than capable!

ford blinkers anyone?
i own a 3 door
s2 rs turbo
mondeo x2
escort van
cossie powered mk2 escort
yet i can still appreciate evo's, scoobys, supras etc... for what they are which is good very capable cars often more so than their ford counterparts, yet mo has an rs turbo, which i can say as i own one are horrible to drive, horrible power delivery , horrible suspension and handling and just all round pretty gash as far as performance cars go (nice to look at tho!) and he thinks he is king of the road
all i can say is mo put up or shut the fuck up you boast wildly about your rs yet time after time you think of excuses for not putting up a video or rolling road printout to prove your car you wont even come pod to show what it can do in fact all you have to "prove" you actually have an rs turbo is some pictures you could very well have nicked off the net.
you will always in my eyes be full of shit
and the reply to my question above is FUCK OFF

well fuck off and take your crayon drawn graph with you and yes my rs turbo is all of the above as is all the other rs turbo's i have owned and been in, yes they are capable of going fast but never in a manner that either feels nice or is comparable to any of the other performance cars mentioned in this thread

Well I like N/A engines but to get big power from them mostly you need lots of pot lots of cc lots of valve area which is normaly found in cars I can only dream of .so yer me ford six pot will do just fine.
#69
MATE ARE YOU SERIOUS? you worked as a ralliart technician and even you dont know how shit these engines could be . power delivery aind anything like a power delivery on a classic old COSWORTH .i been in them and like i say 400bhp on a cossie is good [ that i seen] and the 2 evos i saw run 400 plus blew up ! so i dont trust them! look how old these cossies are they are still kings nearly 20 years later!
#71
do yourself a favour and upload a vid of your fucking escrote thats ment to be faster than everything on the road. prick

mo what have you done to make your rs turbo the best in the uk? as i know it aint the best in the uk because my mate owns the cleaness most well prepare s2 in the uk , also with the second most powerful zetec turbo in the uk at 532bhp.
your car has been done many times now and 300bhp is an easy starting point and doesnt require to much effort or knowledge .
and if evos etc are shit why are 90% of time attack cars evo most run 500+bhp with a few running 800bhp?
maybe its the tuner you use not mapping them up properly as ive never seen one blow up to be honest , and i was surpised when i first joined this forum that how many 500bhp cossie engines needed rebuilding because of problems , and i thought fuck me i hope my engine lasts a bit longer but it probably wont being a zetec as i the cossie engine was designed for motorsport use and the zetec was a production block.
maybe if you didnt come on here with such silly comments people would think your a twat
cheers paul
