Well he booted it at low boost and to be honest it didnt feel as quick as my cossie but at high boost I guess it will be a different story..

Excellent spec must have cost him a few quid. I take it its a gtr engine as you say What specs the cossie as it should anihalate it with that spec.

Garrett GT2860-5 Turbos

Will have to meet up at some point. Theres a purple one that goes southend sometimes that claims 600hp but is no where near the spec your mates is...

Yeah its a GTR engine, I think the bloke before him spend almost 40k on it so quite abit lol

Like I said at 440bhp it didnt feel that much quicker than my cossie which is 353bhp but at high boost it should piss it

Pop over if you seen us down southend sometime, down there most weekends if weather is good!!

Has that purple one got GTR on the number plate?

They are not torquey cars mate but dont need to be if youre always on boost lol

looks good mate. thought it was a GTS engine which is why i questioned it.

There are 2 purple ones. one is a GTS in an aftermarket purple. Thats the one im talking about. Goes to all the chav meets he claims 600 hp in a gts with standard headgasket lol.

All he has done is bolted a bigger turbo on it and had it mapped. my mate mugged him right off.

As for Gtr i think i know the one. My GTR is ony 380/400 hp (Genuine) but its strong and feels good compared to the cossies m3s evos and subarus that ive had. Such good handling too.

I still think its an amazing car just Had clutch done too.

Heres Mine





Deffo meet up mate will be good to see how mine fares. Ill probably gat punished though lol. He has spent a lot of money on youre one....
