Something is not right here..

What the XR8 run 13.99 - funny that.. maybe they want some more XR8 sales?

your std T can run a 14.8 as well ... just get the latest reflash.

Contact your local dealer and ask for the knobbler mod :w00t2:

Hey guys,

I was just reading the new motor magazine, when I saw what the xr6 turbo did down the 1/4 I was shicked they got

0-100 6.25

0-400m 14.81 @ 156.9km/h

I haven't seen the new Motor mag out today yet but I hear they did a comparison with the mkii XR6T with the WRX WRP10. Does anyone know what it said ???

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Was sposed to be in this edition but has been put back to the next.

Maybe Ford have restricted the new T and will be selling "factory" edit's to unleash the power :laughing:

Zap ... you may be onto something. " Transform your T with an APS Edit" brought to you from your local Ford Dealer :spoton: That would be a coup.In any case APS I believe were involved in some OEM component R&D on the Ts .Then again maybe not as silly as it seems :blush:

Just some info, the xr8 ran 13.99, the GT ran a 13.88... This GT also pulled 242kw on the dyno, pulling more power than even the HSV's...

The T pulled 192 but just dropped off at the top end, and the gearbox was apparently an appauling example.

Meh.....

They did 2 dyno runs on the GT, to make sure the 242 was kosher. It pulled 242 both runs. :sleepystuff:

....and whoa and behold the T is now a slug..... sorry but this knobbling business burrs me up a treat. Marketing wankers at it again :sleepystuff:

Get the offer and strategy right in the first place. Why have 4 cars ( variants ) running similar power and times in the fisrt place? Specs V value are not that different

The GT did not deliver in the first instance, and Ford/ FPV have been detuning/ retuning ever since in order to increase their ASP and move some higher priced units.

Edited Phoon with Zorst and injectors will learn em all up. Arrhhhh FPV you've done it again :gooff:

Before you marketers out there start throwing rocks, just go refer to your marketing for Idiots manuals first :spoton: The whole thing reeks IMO
