I hadn't seen it on svtperformance, so I'm not sure if it's been posted here either. Is this the kit the red gt has? That idle sounds SICK :thumbsup

doesn't appear fast. Looks like Torrie is extremely careful, still breaking it in !?
 
It is truly amazing in the car. You dont have to beat the hell out of it to go fast. So I don't. Actually the clutch has been toast for about a month due to No core and its been sitting at Tony's for the past week. I was on target to get my 1000+RWHP graph when the clutch let go on the dyno. So whenever that gets done I will be able to push the car to the level I want.

I know what you mean. Just got a new clutch myself from Tony sent and installed, works just fine now after some initial shudder... Now pushing it hard again, it's something I don't want to live without anymore....

Isn't the turbo like the F40 hard to control when it kicks in !? I am quite impressed with the supercharger power and torque curve, right there, and never let's go until 7000rpms are in and the limiter comes to action...

Hi Torrie, Love that video. It would be great to see more footage of the speedo when you are accelerating - it must climb as fast as most guys tach needles! Also, when the wastegate comes in between shifts it sounds like Indiana Jones is cracking a whip! Is it the same sound when you're driving or is it distorted in the video?

Awesome car brother.
 
If you went for a ride you would be a turbo convert. It changed me instantaneously. :biggrin
 
Thanks your not the first person to say that sounded like a whip crack.

a lot more video footage is in the works. The clutch issue has been the problem the last month. Once that gets solved watch out. :biggrin :biggrin

That was me filming so I guess I'll chime in here. It sounds like that when cruisng. Everytime you think no one is watching you'll go pSSSTTTT!...........PSSST! :banana

Honest to god, I've never been on a rollercoaster that caused that much blood to rush to my head. From 20mph all the way to the undisclosed number the GT went up to, the power feels even. I don't know at what point this car gives up and stops accerating, but I don't want to be in it when somone finds out.......(actually I do! lol)
 
The funny part about it when you were in the car J it was turned down. :biggrin

Torrie do you have 0-60, 0-100 and 0-150 mph times via a gps unit? Inquiring minds wanna know.
 
Improved or different clutch used to handle the power?
