Have you got beefier driveshafts as well, or do you carry a boot full of spares. Sounds like a nice little motor. Bring it down to the next meet
193 bhp per litre and 300 bhp per tonne should make for a really fast car.
What suspension do you have?

Saxo better built are you Mad, there french for starters and the french cars are known for poor for build quality and reliability. Yet these Jap cars -Whether Mitsubishi, Toyota/Lexus, Subaru , Honda mazda have are far better build quality, and if treated right are very reliable, just look at JD Power serveys and the like. Yes VTR's and S's are good little Junior Hot Hatches - but built well i think not

Julian, you've lost the plot there lad, better build quality!!!

I personally am not putting the lad down, god I had a modified nissan bluebird turbo with blacked out windows and a peco big bore 4 backbox, so I cant call anybody (used to pi$$ of rs turbo owners though!!!)
Its Saxo boys pride and joy, I think all credit to him if it does exist, should definately bring it down to the meet, it will be good to see a highly tuned other marque car

I don't think anyone is putting the lad down and it's to his credit that he has built such a quick car.

I just think if he is prepared to pay all that money he should have started out with a better base.

Morning! Spotted by me on Sat I thinks when you drove past Queens Park towards Dentons Green Lane about 4pm? If it wasnt you then its a clone
I was taking my bike for a walk As you do

As for this lads Saxo... Sweet lord above... IF and I mean IF this spod has spent all that money making his mums car fast then he needs his head read... I wonder if his insurance company know as from his typing he's clearly only about 17 and a quarter...
300+ from a front wheel drive shopping cart ... Mines an 02WRX Blue/Black with big exhaust and private plate... keep an eye out for me too I dont normally bother with zitty chav wannabe's but for saxo child, you I'll make an exception

Thanks matey!

That is correct - By default, managers in our line of work do nothing all day ... In the words of Roy Castle, "delegations what you need"

Oh and when I said the wing is being fixed I didnt mean to imply that I was trying to get my scoob airbound - just to clear up any confusion

Woohoo, got my new Scooby, pick her up at the weekend!

She's an absolute beast of a thing, not even a 310bhp Saxo could be any kind of a match!

And yes, it's 4wd

you going to come and show her off?

Why?

It's the volume of cold air in the cylinder that is important ( with correct fueling and ignition timimg ) so whether its 500 CFM at 20 psi or 500 cfm at 15 psi is irrevelant .. as long as the hoses hold the pressure and it's mapped right.
As long as the turbo can provide it and not be too over worked
