oh dear i hope they catch to guy that did that and put him back in his padded cell soon !!!!:yuck:
Good find KC. It takes some balls to do a car like that. Amazing rims and interior - not my taste tho'. The bodywork is wild and some of the strakes (if that's the right word?) appear wonky; at certain angles it looks like its been in a crash.
From other angles it looks okay, though it is definitely no longer a Barchetta.

not my cup of tea really.. very particular taste.. is this the one with the 16v coupe block in it?
As a non modder I will admit that the colour matched headlight inserts is a discreet touch.
Although does it have any air vents left? Not sure if even the windscreen demister has been covered up, but the dials are still in place.

Can we get these guys with the turbo's on the forum, would be great to have some of their ideas and input.

Not too sure if 286bhp is such a good idea on a FWD, but nontheless
That all depends on who's driving.
Guys, this B with the 286bhp u can not imagine how it goes on the road....
its 2000cc with a Garrett turbocharger GT30R
This b can spin up to 3rd gear if you want too...
This engine can reach more than 300bhp and now she works @ 0.8 bar boost

I agree that the best b is a non turbo with 180bhp...
but the best back wind spoiler for me is the invisible one!
I don't like spoilers at all on B...

Ive owned a B turbo with the Novitec kit, 188bhp and it was quick, I only used it for a few weeks before removing the kit which will be re installed into my present B at some stage. I,m just planning on improoving it further to go to 200+ . With 188bhp the B handles the power very well, and feels like it should have been mass produced this way.
My friend owned a Sabb Aero turbo at the time and i would leave him off the lights around 3/4 cars and he could never catch me, so not bad for a B.
286bhp must be alsome in a B and can just imagine how quick it is.
I always find it good fun to give others in fast cars a bit of a shock.

Speaking with experience a 200Hp B is errm, quick. Power to weight is about 200hp per ton. There are no real issues with it except wheelspin. It could do with traction control and bigger wheels but the whole idea is 'sleeper car' to look entirely standard. Its a bit ragged around the edges at present and needs boost gauge / oil pressure gauges. Engine is 'proper job' factory recon so no worries there. The main issue is brake fade..standard brakes aren't up to a crash stop from 140mph.
