My current Vectra 168ps. Once her indoors gets a bigger car for the kids I may get a toy.

My current car, a Supercharged VXR8 with its 6.2L V8 and a Harrop HH1900 blower which is pushing circa 575bhp. Room for more though.............

Recently purchased 3.2 Boxster S with a Parr turbo conversion. 378 bhp. That's 911 GT3 pace, but with the engine in the correct position. wink

Nice, that'll surprise a few people!

Mk1 MX5 with about 135bhp for me, I'm aiming for a 996 C2 for when insurance goes down at 21, though. smile

Only about 300 ish from an ex rally drivers Evo 5.

Most powerful machine I have operated has 911895 bhp and we have two of them smile (though the power source for the machine actually puts out 1.6 GW)

Plus 8 10000bhp Diesel engines too.

Near on 2 million bhp, pity it won't fit in the back.

Thanks. I love your MX5. I have a V-Special 2 as well, which I'm thinking of tracking, so I may use your build thread for inspiration.

I've had an E46 M3 and E39 M5, so I guess the M5 will be the more powerful? 400bhp.

E55 AMG - 476bhp....

....which was too much. Insane, and scary on wet roundabouts.
