Just had the Loba L0400 kit removed and a Forced performance HTA GTX3071R custom kit fitted. Setting the scene.... A damp private track in backwoods of Yorkshire, the air rank with the odour of exhaust fumes and stretching out in front of you a thin sliver of gnarled black, damp, partly muddy, Tarmac curving gradually uphill into the distance. The gearstick snicked into manual mode and the ESP turned off, revs build and you are off..........the nearly worn tyres slip and grip, your head and eyes go funny with the G force and........... Not bad to say it isn't even set-up fully yet the bum dyno said more power and the software calculates out at 447bhp. There's definitely more than spring pressure by the looks of it. 1/4 mile figures when I can after set-up.
Update.... The R has had a few upgrades including update tune, 8 pot BBK, 70mm throttle body, Nortech production exhaust system...freer flowing, upgraded WMI. Power sits somewhere over 500bhp. Currently holds the UK quickest official 1/4 mile record at 11.08@124.5mph Another video.....not my quickest, but a decent run.....10's soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um5lkxJryTc&feature=youtu.be
Yeah, she is a bit of a monster. Need to try the Curby track again as last time I went she was stock apart from a bare map.
Very nice 4wd making a massive difference in sprints , i had researched doing a 4*4 conversion on the Mk5, but just pipe dreams at the mo :-)
