Most people find after 300 they start to get a bit cranky and don't last very long with harsh driving. Its the torque more than the power that kills driveline gear though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 15/09/08 05:16 AM Share Posted 15/09/08 05:16 AM Mine got punished for about 2 weeks with 250rwkw then as soon as it went in for turbo back exhaust & 300+ it died. Made it about 300 metres up the road form the tune shop!! Car only had ~50,000 clicks at that stage as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
