Went out in the car today.

Put my foot down and from 40 mph my car went to 200 mph in 1 second

What could be broke

Possibly

Speedo converter ??

Speedo sensor in the gearbox ??

Who said its not possible just got to wait till the dyno the turbos rated to 1000bhp so let's play with it till I get 500 or more

 

The box is only ok for 400 ish. There are many members here who are on their 2nd or 3rd box.

 

Good luck in your quest and remember the AA membership.

It's only the turbo that's rated to 1000bhp Guigsy, at least that's how i read it anyway. Either way, it won't stop the arse falling out of the W58 at 500bhp so it's irrelevant. As above, check the convertor first Neil.

I understand that. But a turbo that is rated at 1000 bhp that's only producing 400 is going to be as laggy as hell. Why wouldn't you just run a smaller, faster spooling turbo that's rated to make that power.

 

Besides. Going off topic a little.
