Also interesting to note that my guys regularly took Pole positions, against circa 500bhp turbo Leons, Tomcats, even the odd Evo on occasion. A well set up and driven NA Saxo/106 with a good engine can be very hard to beat with any real world road car.
But more than anything, I like my engines to feel exciting from the moment the key's turned, if you don't have to be flat out to enjoy it, that's alot of extra value. |
Love that quote. Every post I see from you is making me more keen for you to build me an engine and discard turbo conversion.
In terms of road driving is it worth going from PH4/734/7's to solid grind cams?
