Guest Guests Posted 29/08/08 06:48 AM Share Posted 29/08/08 06:48 AM Sounds a bit like a happy dyno but who knows... Could be one of the early freaks How does she drive mate? Do you get much wheelspin in a straight line when getting up it??

Will then indicate the real power. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49131-power-output-kw/#findComment-725247 Share on other sites More sharing options...
