They may only have 300kw but they are getting up to the 600nM torque figure combined with light weight.There are more ways to F^0$ a cat than lift it's tail.

Posted 14/06/04 10:56 AM Share Posted 14/06/04 10:56 AM Well, you can't believe everything you hear can you.Talking to a Ford manager and a big country (WA) dealer principal at Barbagello's on Sunday the likelyhood of a 330kw HO was very likely, the message I got was that they are waiting what HSV are going to do later this year.But really, I took this with a 1lb of salt as I think going by the amount of secrecy all car manufacturers go through protecting development and testing I can't see them telling us, of the hoy-poloy, what they are going to do, so I will reserve my judgment, but hope like hell the HO does see a re-birth. Although I won't be able to afford one! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11320-perhaps-no-gtho/page/2/#findComment-133993 Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Member 259 Member For: 20y 11m 29d Gender: Male Posted 15/06/04 08:59 AM Share Posted 15/06/04 08:59 AM I have to agree with plonky ,if they do put a limit on power then ford would be more inclined to fatten up the torque figures with better engineering and testing.Horsepower is great to talk about ,but torque is what accelerates the car.....
