I think you'll find the sc Miami v8 has far more capability than the chassis and rear end (think of the diff bushes!) of the FG can handle. Near 400rwkw will be just a few bolt ons and a tune.

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.

At the risk of totally going off-topic, for me it is a simple decision to have turbos over positive displacement pumps - fuel economy if you want it :)

But, as you rightly mention, space is a problem with the V8.....

Soz for off-topic,guys.....

mmm how much horsepower does it take to turn this compressor. Or who cares when it can get what it gets @TRW

I heard something about a new rear end @ the end of 2012. But it was only internet dwibble

Bring 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.

For all you girls complaining about sliding around on the leather you obviously aren't built for comfort like yours truly...have never had that concern

Tab' date=' we should tell those skinny boys to put some meat on them bones :)

At 107kgs, I am definately not sliding around in the leathers. Ok, I know I sold the UTE, but the G6E has leather..... :)

I 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.
