Re: Spec of your coupes

Mines pretty standard. Two reasons -

1. The engines coming up to 100k and I don't want to stress it too much.
2. funds!


Mods -

K+N panel filter and airbox drilling mod. 5BHP?
PRV set @ 1.1 bar - 10-15BHP?
Bailey DV26 - 0 BHP !


Coming soon -

G-Tec chip - 10 BHP

So say my car is about 210 BHP (I doubt it's 220bhp after 100k)

plus the 30 brake from mods makes it about 240 Brake.

Im happy with that

Re: Spec of your coupes

100k+ is some going

Re: Spec of your coupes

Oh that's nothing. There are loads still going at 150K on the other forum, and I seen one with 190k for sale on ebay
the 20VT engine will go on forever, It's just a case of proper maintenance (cambelt, oil, coolant etc) .
I'm on my second turbo obviously, they only last for about 70k.

Re: Spec of your coupes

Selling mine, its still on the Original Turbo no smoke plenty of boost at 91k! I wouldn't mind betting it will get well over 120k on it, someone managed 160k on an original turbo I love my coupe but it has to go

@Supercouper - You don't "have" to sell, take a leaf out of Hanny's book!
It's a case of how much you want to keep it! So keep it
