It will be getting a full 3" exhaust and some cams this summer and a few more psi of boost... it should make over 350whp/400 crank hp
It weighs about 2300lbs |
Nice! Which gearbox are you using? The O2A (I think) from the VR6?
With the rally crowd I used to hang out with, the gearboxes were always the weaker link |

Yeah I'm running an 02A, the VR6 one doesn't bolt up to 4cyl engines. I'm running a Passat 16v 02A, it came out of a 320k km car and I haven't had any problems with it. The weak transmissions are the 020s, 02As can handle 350-400wtq if driven properly |

I laugh at people who drive SUVs and big trucks. |
I laugh at Ford releasing this monster:
over the summer. I'm sure with gas prices climbing higher and higher people will be just clamouring to buy a HUGE vehicle. It's like Ford wants to shoot itself in the foot. |

So how many of you will be thinking of selling your car at the end of the summer? A motorcycle's looking mighty temping with gas prices expecting to hit $1.50/L. |
never!
I bought mine knowing it would guzzle gas. But then I also leave it parked from M-F a good 15+ weeks and don't drive to/from work ever. |

How about a weeknight then? I have a tournament next weekend so I'm not sure of the schedule yet.
How's Wednesday evening looking? |

It would honestly be pointless as a daily driver, it would cost a fortune in gas. It gets horrible gas mileage. |

| Why would you buy it if you couldn't afford driving it? |
