BTW I love the 4.11s, should have done it months ago.CheersRobin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd expect to progressively increase power, and have it up to around 400rwkw within 6 months. It's rated at around 900NM capable, but hopefully there'll be more R&D on upgrades for this box in 2007. These days making the power is easy.... quite a change from our early days of 2003 when we were talking & dreaming about what we could/might do with piggybacks.We can now also get the cars to brake and handle well... and I can do a back to back compare of Alcon & Brembo 6-pot/4pot combos.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 6 months I may do a major parts transplant between the cars. It'll give us time to evaluate options.← *Shakes head and leaves room* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
