Default lambo performance?

hi guys been reading a few threads regarding supercars on here,
although i own a cos which is a garage queen i dare'nt push it to its limit
i was well into the e30 bm scene not long ago and had a turbo'd m20 2.5 pushing the shy side of 400rwhp

but seein some posts on here with claims of people keeping up with these supercars with there 330bhp cars ect has made me think if its really possible to do it on the cheap?

im in the process of comlpetely refurbing a 325i sport so might be tempted on another turbo conversion

guys opinions and figures please and be realistic thanks

Chip a 325i & its certainly a Lambo beater we have RST's on here that kill them. The 325i should outrun an Enzo with just a chip but you would need to fit a roll cage to get on par with a Veyron.

How obvious is it that masserah is Mo under a new name? What a coincidence Mo gets banned and this guy just crops up as a new member on the very same day and wants to discuss Mo's favourite topic.

are you a follower or got your own mind ?

theres no way a cosworth will beat a lambo with 330bhp, its called power to weight, but by the sounds of it wont make much sense to you

I would think a genuine 400-450bhp cossie would have similar acceleration, not sure about 4x4 but definately 2wd.

my mate had a balst with a ferrari on way down to fordfair this year in his 4x4 saph and thats not 400bhp and he was pushin the ferrari.

ferrari's are over rated to fuck, same as alot of other supercars!

a good spec'd cossie would blow the fuckers out the water

to be fair a friend of mine had a 355 and a mutual friend has a approx 370bhp 2wd cossie and the cossie was faster.maybe not in ultimate top speed but on the normal road, in gear acceleration and 1/4 miole at crail it was faster.........i'd stilll prefer the ferarri in the garage though.
