sparky21 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 lol well ok then> it'll prob convince you to get a car enginged one lol, Foreign engine will be fine I would of thought, actually would of been sure of! like I say bike engine or car engine its all good fun, I have a friend with a MTM 570bhp Audi rs6 and we have had many a scrap and well lets say its funny, and thats on the road with out much use of down force, on a track would be a different story, count how many times you lap him lol.... if there were any probs with an engine swap I would of thought it would be ECU side only... if that....

Speed Freak Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Ive got a client of mine whose running an abt tuned rs6 with 730ps! Apparently its limited to 205mph but he said it should do another 10mph, but he would have to get specially made tyres that will allow him to do it!! $$$$$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky21 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 lol well he would be waving good bye to me at 140 ish ha, but like i say put it on a track where cornering,braking, and acceleration counts and doesnt matter how much bhp you have got, just look at the ( zonda vs xtr2 ) on top gear you tube video, a 1300cc vs a 7200cc, 180 bhp vs 750bhp and look what happens, weight is everything!!!!!

Car is coming tonight as didnt realise HSBC dont open counters on Saturdays any more Yes the bridge is now open again I was out for a blat on saturday and spotted all the roadblocks had gone. I think they had only just cut the ribbon as they'd got the bunting flags out and a small crowd gathered. Seemed rude not to at least drive over it, so I put on a good show for them, made some noise and got a wave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark (smokey mow) Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Well Done that man! I guess the backs better now. A lot better than it was thanks but still getting some gyp. Not even that though would keep me out of the westfield when we've had a weekend like the one just gone. It was good to see a large number of Westfield's too Sunday lunchtime at the Essex area meet Kevin, hope it stays dry for your collection, it's looking a bit damp out the window at the mo I look forward to seeing you blatting around our part of Essex once you've got it on the road.

Pistol Pete Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'm looking at heading out some time over the weekend if anyone fancies a blat. Going to head out Castle Hedingham way to get some pictures of the Westy with a castle in the background for the SKCC photo competition.
