 Expert Posts: 2029   Location: sittingbourne, kent | ive had this since the beginning of the year, although its no C63 AMG type v8 you can not beat the sound of a lazy american v8  so thought i would share, I did take it to santapod this year and it done 15.1 seconds at 91 mph not bad for its weight and bhp i have since fitted some stainless steel rear boxes to give it the sound it deserves       | ||

Cheers, yes very different underneath, front suspension is near as the same as the normal fwd albeit bilstein dampers. There not very fast at all, my brothers zandf remapped zt 1.8 turbo is similar speeds (lighter car to start with) only really bought it for the v8 sound and the rarity of it. My old ausitn is currently be made into a rwd k series turbo by my cousin | ||

Expert Posts: 2029 Location: sittingbourne, kent | The v8 will keep going all the way to 155mph, the re tuned 1.8 t runs out of puff at 145mph, just low speeds the turbo will always be there Darrens has been logging a build on his Facebook page, you might be able to see the pictures.
