What Gearbox is that married up to? AND are you running LSD?
Very curious as to how you are putting 270 down onto the road?!?!?!
Nice choice RTW

£1.5-2k.
I think sticking with the duratec might be more cost effective
thing is though, the cossie can go on to produce 8 million hp without needing to touch anything apart from the turbo  .
What do you do for a living jpindy? I think I need to change careers..

Looking good matey!
You'll have to take me out for a spin when it's all up and running

There was a bloke that used to frequent the westfield meet I attended back when I had the pre-lit, he had a 480 odd bhp cossie lump in his wide
body.
That thing was insanely fast (he took me out for a quick blast in it, never felt acceleration like it in anything on 4 wheels), he did say he had to
be very carefull with his right foot mind.
Last I heard he was aiming to break 600bhp.
Nice to have enough money to throw at your toys I guess!
You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.
