Besides, you'd strip 1st gear the first time you went for a drag.


No you wouldn't. The step before that, stuff the clutch. Seriously where do these [eople get off? do they really expect their claims to be beleived?

What ever dreamer! Maybe with a very well sorted 20B Turbo/NOS. Some peoples ideas of HP figures are just absolute crap. Stop pulling numbers out ya ass and stick it on the dyno. Known plenty of dreamer V8 guys up here quoting 350-400, they get it on the dyno and pull 200-250. Then the claims of faulty dyno start getting thrown around!

Now thats what im talking about in one of my other posts, except he has not driven it down a hill that is mount everest and a whole case of beers to compensate.

I seriously dont think he knows what he is talking about and maybe quoted mouse power instead of horse power.

Okay so there's new room for a turbo and a driver, but we're halfway there.

What does everyone think if I said that I knew someone with a mini that had approx 690hp at the flywheel :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: (apparently no joke) and that is with major work done on the engine and he is running stage 4 NOS so I think that he is shttiing beacase he doesn't have a turbo or supercharger on it ..........yet but I know that he has got a greddy turbo ready to put on......

so what are peoples thoughts on this

Whatever you say officer, you must be right :P :twisted: 8)
