[QUOTE=Ross9;147959]Pic



The fun thing is, it looks standard, in fact now it has different wheels from in that pic, has 2.0 non turbo alloys now, not the turbo ones as they dont clear the big brakes without spacers, so as long as you dont notice the FMIC or cut slicks on the front wheels, it looks like a 145 bhp 2.0 16v one

.... etc

man... i love sleepers as the volvo i listed was my dads i cant wait to build the ultimate sleeper. really like the car mate how much has it cost you in total?

9.something, but from Monday should be 7.something!

The two T5's are supposedly 7.4 and 7.5

If we're willy waving family cars - a DB9 (on order) and 911 Carrera 2 S both around 4.5 or thereabouts

I'd love to know how these big old n/a 7's are getting 0-60 in 9s and 10s... my 360 B200E does it in around 10.5 and weighs a couple of hundred K's less

Me 855 T5,with a boost increase will only be a bit quicker than standard....what ever that is.

Previous car managed a 6.2 second sprint,but it ended up with an extra 40 odd bhp after it was timed and was also stripped out.Had a lot of fun in that car Managed around 150mph too....
