Near 400rwkw will be just a few bolt ons and a tune.

Henz Tampon inserted, Auto Acquired, next purchase a new handbag Donating Members 9,946 Member For: 17y 2m 10d Gender: Male Location: Vic Posted 12/12/10 07:52 AM Share Posted 12/12/10 07:52 AM Were are they gunna put the turbos. Theyld have to mount the turbos under the floor, with our roads that wouldn't end well. Cat back and tune =380rwkw, a cooler ild assume would get low 400s. Not many people will want more than that.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 12/12/10 08:18 AM Share Posted 12/12/10 08:18 AM mmm how much horsepower does it take to turn this compressor. Or who cares when it can get what it gets @TRWI heard something about a new rear end @ the end of 2012. But it was only internet dwibbleBring on an XR8 n/a and we can do what eva plz's. I think people compare the GT to the F6 as the F6 stomped the GTS into the ground. So its a natural sibling rivalry.

Ok, I know I sold the UTE, but the G6E has leather..... Quote mmm how much horsepower does it take to turn this compressor. Or who cares when it can get what it gets @TRWI know the big Jimmy Roots blowers can take up to 30% to get keep them going at full boost. I wuld reckon you'd still loose 20-25% on the units in use on the Miami.These setups do desperately need an intercooler.....as heatsoak does effect them.
