Guest jteale Guests Posted 11/11/04 10:29 PM Share Posted 11/11/04 10:29 PM Just read the article on the F6 and I must say if FPV Marketing didn't have word in Motor's ear I would be very surprised (or the F6 was an early mule) ... I suspect with the GT recording only a 13.85 if the F6 hammered it, it would be a disaster ... anyway ... curious to hear what real owners have to say ...I was also surprised to hear they liked it so much yet it got ordinary times...Must be a chance for PCOTY this year though!!!Cheers, Jason.

F6_Tornado F6+300+ Member 940 Member For: 20y Location: In The Ute Posted 12/11/04 01:33 AM Share Posted 12/11/04 01:33 AM We will have to waite to get some REAL data I think.With the F6 developing more Torque at 1750 RPM than the GT can produce at 5000RPM even a dumb ass HSV owner would be very cautious and nervous about the posted results and wishing they were acurate.Weight is allways a part of the calculation and the best way to help minimise its effect is with more torque which is what we have here.You will all be smiling when they start to show some Actual test results.Consider the performace of the XR6T and then add:6 Speed3.73 Diff100nm Torque ( that is HUGE)30 kw (Kept below GT kws to keep them happy)MMmm moter mag show its only as quick as an XR6T I DONT THINK SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The door swings both ways there bud, spend the money on a typhoon and it will destroy just about everything on the road.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
