The car was finished in September 2007 and is back in for it's 5000 mile checkover, as you can see it's doing rather well.......We have the kind permission from the client to display the Whipple 'oh' and car up at Santa Pod this weekend as we are running our dyno all weekend.

Dyno Charts as promised!!

What's a Manaro?

730bhp = more manliness perhaps?

Nice work Mark. This is what I'd have if I could afford it! As a matter of interest, how much would it cost to take say a Magnacharged+IC 5.7 CV8 up to this spec?

Wait for it...."It doesn't count because it wasn't on Vixpy's dyno and it wasn't at the hubs and the bonnet wasn't up and and my VXR-with-the-Road-Response-Pac is much faster!"

have to say I would welcome Vixpy's comment as he can read the graphs and has no axe to grind.

As it is running at Santa Pod it will be interesting to compare with Jez as he is the current benchmark for a 'fast' 'ro.

How does the car drive? It must be a beast in the wet.... Does it have Race Logic?

Well done Mark. The graphs look correct. Good control of IT & AT. Correct scaling, even used ignition pick up.

What do you think caused the spike in the torque and then it settled back to just under 790lb-ft ? Genuine interest no agenda ?

Certainly is a monster.

Have you modded the drivetrain to take the extra grunt and is it running std tyre width?

Will it be at the Pod on Sun.
