Does your fezza turbo handle that much power and not break ! :shocked:

I don't know about my Rallye yet as I've not had it long enough, so not RR'd it or 1/4 it yet. They are only 150 as standard but they are 4wd so that should help. Mines not standard so it's had BRM ported and polished head, Autotech G60 cam, autothority chip with 500rpm extra rev range, giro check valve, K&N filter, 68mm pulley and custom SS exhaust. Hoping to see what happens at the next Santa Pod show. I got 17.2 out of my mk1 cab so I'm hoping to do better than that ! :laugh:

Its got steel rods and forged pistons and a reground crank, so the engine is over-engineered for reliability.  The gearbox is a prob though - so im gonna buy one from CTS (they re-engineer boxes using uprated parts and a quaife atb diff.  This will help put power down and aids carrying more power through the corners.

Lol - i expected a few digs about the Ford and to be honest there is some truth fix or repair daily!! but you gotta admit, some tasty beasts have left uncle henrys stable over the years!! :smiley:

so whom has the fastest beast!

There are quite a few on here that like the blue oval, but only the old school versions, so anything post 1990 is a no no. :laugh:

As for whom has the fastest beast ! Not sure really as we've not all done RR's and/or 1/4 mile runs, but from all the regulars it's probably toph's Rallye at the RR day as it pushed out 204.5 or something like that. There maybe someone with more but I can't think at the mo, but if I'm wrong I'm sure someone will shout out. :smiley:

As you can see we arn't that bothered or organised about RR or 1/4 miles times. Personally I prefer B roads and Track Days.

... it's turned into a fashion show for poofters.
