R-SPEC You are a dead set goose Silver Donating Members 3,968 Member For: 18y 11m 14d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 09/10/10 04:38 AM Share Posted 09/10/10 04:38 AM 270rwkw stock is pretty impressive. GT 335 is going to get very close to the 300 mark. If the normal factory tune is nice and rich, im sure these things will be pushing well into the 300's just with a tune.Should have just waited... :(My F6 did 279rwkw stock on 2 totally different dynos on different days and at different times of the day. The turbo cars will always show more power. Wonder if I'd beat a new GT with my lil 300rwkw tune...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Turbo 6 will probably win in a straightline but put them round a circuit and especially a damp track the the GT will be quicker. The V8 has a much more linear power delivery and therefore you can feed the throttle on earlier. Have a look at the motor Hot Tuner comparo on a Wet track the 2 turbos were well off the pace (though one had mechanical issues) compared to similar powered V8s. It is also better balanced having a shorter alloy engine.What sucks is the GS & GT being under the FPV banner they will only have a 1600kg towing capacity in auto which simply isn't enough for me .

And true as it may be, still doesn't mean I wouldn't trade my turbo in for a SC V8. And we best wait to see what these things are really capable of. Has any one got specs on the torque these make?

He might have just filmed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 09/10/10 06:14 AM Share Posted 09/10/10 06:14 AM Power delivery is much different to the T, always on tap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
