Turbo / Supercharges "T"
best try CS for this one mate...
not heard of one on a T but there's a few on 182's. Paul @ RS tuning has a 182, stripped, S/C'd running nearly 400bhp... boy does that shift.
Pauls aiming for 400bhp he's not there quite yet. All the graphs I've seen it was running 330-350 which is still quite alot.
It's interesting to see the torque is quite low using a supercharger eg 330bhp 245lb/ft compared to a turbo set up where power and torque are almost equal.
Theres a f4r hybrid engine fitted to Scoffs drag renault 5 that made 551bhp at motorscope rollers at the weekend so obviously there is potential there.

Which gearbox do they run?
How would you get all that power down, without it being a nightmare?

that 182 of pauls had no problems traction wise, in most powerfull cars you'll need to go weasy in the first couple of gears anyway.
as i say - you can light up tyres fairly easy in most fwd cars if you want to, especially running a power to weight ratio of nearly 550bhp/ton, but if you modulate the go faster pedal correctly you should be ok, when he took me out it, it was fine. =P~
