I know of a 2.1 set-up on here that would knock the **** out of nearly most 450bhp 2.5 set-ups, but that's another story and I don't like blowing smoke up that owners ****!


Marham wont show whats so special about my car, which is the low down torque and throttle response. You will always have the higher power cars doing the business in a straight line, which means little in the real world.

I have to correct you there. The only reason I'm driving the JDM is because of the white one being written off. Had that not happened I'd still be driving that.

I really like the JDM blob but it ain't a patch on a 600 bhp classic with 565ft lbs.
