I believe they are twin turbo and straight six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This approach gives you a very smooth and torquey mid-range, that engine/car combination was developed with TT in mind, so there is enough room in the engine bay too.

Handling is far from dull - shakes the weight off quite well.Oh, and the V6TT setup is apparently a 350kw minimum prospect, so take from that what you will.There's a stronger feel of quality about the new cars, even though they're certainly not up to euro standards. I believe the philosophy is to build european style cars but cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only said what I'd been told about the project. 350 was the number.Heck, the even the new XR6 Turbo has more factory ability than most people realise.

Though some standard cars do already put out these numbers they are the same price as houses and far less common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will wait and see who on here buys one and what the problems are, if it has faults like the B series, thjen I will never buy another falcon again. I am that dead set sick of Ford and there half assed attempts. yes I do love my BA, but hate its faults.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
