Iv just learned to accept this car drives me... I dont drive it. Once I learned that (about 4pm on the local motorway yesterday) Iv started to enjoy itSelect desired gearFeed it slowly (rather than just bitch slap it)And just kick back and enjoy the ride.And if your mates want to jump in I give 10/10 marks it goes almost EXACTLY the same.Its like an electronically controlled big block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say 8s all day long. Destroke it full grout fill methanol it manifolds and a bigger turbo and spin her up to 9k and she'll be in the 7s (maybe not all day but more than what a rotor could do) that's imo. 1 day someone will do it and with a few years more development (provided the crank holds up as there is no after market atm) Im pretty sure 6s which is up there with all the Big Blocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including doing some all wheel drive hellies (yeah she does em) Just flat out atm with work and familySooooo keen for vids of terry helliesHow absurd it must look is already making me giggle.Glad your warming to it mate, its a different beast I suppose. I to love a well sorted N/A V8 and there is alot of times where I miss it just for the sensory experience. But the relentless power of the barra is addictive, in gear acceleration from the lowish to mid range like when exiting a corner, is just awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were patting themselves on the back for making 140hp on a blueprinted dedicated E85 engine after CMS done a 1hr tune lol... Reason why until I see it down the 1/4 im not mentioning who done the tune. Id appreciate the guys who do know not to post up here but ay if its out there its out there not to worry.
