Tuning cinq GT

[allanhelen]

just curious whats the perfornance stats for these engines in cinqs+ seicentos with 1.4 16v engine? and other engines must be pretty quick ina light car

In a 134BHP 1.1 turbo 0-60 in less than 6 seconds on the RR and top end of 132MPH on GPS.
Oh and uses a tank full of fuel in 90 miles having fun and less than 3K miles to a set of front tyres

anyone got any info on the 260bhp 1.2?

Or a 1368 16v bottom end with 8v head and turbo'd?

I would like to hear more about this combination.

I would like to hear more about this combination.

The rods on the later SuperFIRE engines are said to be a weak spot. (500 Abarth and Mito 55 have much improved bottom ends.)

There's some seriously interesting ideas and executions listed and linked above. I really like the look of the Novitecs and the balls out approach of a few of the others.

Excluding the rear engined cossie job, how does such a light fwd car contain 150+ brake? This is not a dig or criticism, I'm really curious!

generally going over items with a fine bush to see what could be done to it, such has blueprinted engine, lightening along with alot of porting alng with uprated gaskets for turbocharging

its sometimes tested to destruction on cars

Sorry whitz,
I didn't explain myself very well. What I meant was in relation to wheelspin and torque steer etc.

no probs

for wheelspin its down to how you drive but it would easily do a wheelspin if you wanted it to

there is some torque steer due to the different length driveshafts

well dont know about the torque steer but to deal with the wheel spin i will use the idea of of being light on the loud pedal but if my uno turbo is anything to go by i may end up with wheel spin in 5th gear too but meehhhhhhh we will see
