It's a damn nice car Grant, so im sure it'll certainly impress a few of those uninformed idiots (non-fto fans

)

Did anyone read the latest issue, with that Type-R? it only had around 136kw atw... and the list of mods was massive!

It was a really nice car but...

Yeah i read that, but you got to remember which dyno it was on, & which mode. 129.9kwatw still a very good for a N/A especially the DC2 is fairly light, well balanced chassis & got LSD, so the result on the rd/track would be much better then most N/A car including FTO.

Yeah i know, it would kill on a track etc... but i just was suprised at the amount of mods, and the power of it. like with that much hardcode mods put in, i would think it would be higher........... thats all not having a go at honda's

well apart from the CAM, he haven't done much different performance mod to what you & I had done to our FTO, the rest of the mod are really for strengthen the engine/block. So the figure isn't that much of a suprise. Maybe we should get you to line it up & see what happen eheehe

some mods arent done just for pure power. As Kev said, some mods are for strengthening the engine to make it go harder for a longer period of time.
I know that i have a few things to mod on my MR2 just to keep it reliable and strong becuz of the other mods im undertaking on the car.
