Does the 550 equal the amount of power the turbo is capable of producing?

[stratosboy]

yes, but Maxx ECU is programmable, for 300, 400 & 500bhp. So I'll go up in stages as I learn about car's character

[Fermit and Sexy Sarah]

fk me sideways, I bet that's hairy. I'll watch the thread with interest.

Love this -

Gerry Marshall. Wonderful character. Wonderful car.

I got his autograph at the Earls Court Motor show when the car was exhibited .
The car, as many will know, was known as Big Bertha and was written off then much of it was built into a Firenza which was known as Baby Bertha , Baby had a very successful career.

Re-post, but worth it

Built by a Swedish engineer who works for Koenigsegg I seem to remember.

Just fantastic

Fantastic looking, I’m no Ferrari expert but from the outside it look pretty realistic......However.....the engine. I’m sure it pushes it down the road at a fair rate but could you live with it for £70k?

I like big wheels (preferably with a big dish) but these are a little too large for my tastes - that aside though, I do like that

Except for the facial expression of the loon driving.... That's brilliant. I want a small pickup... Hmmmm.....

Almost perfect BMW E9 Coupe, E46 M3 engine, custom subframe to hold full front E46 M3 suspension setup and steering rack. Rear E28 subframe, suspension towers etc to switch from shock/spring to full coilover setup.
