That thing must shift! :)

it certainly does mate, according to my tuner (NO NAMES MENTIONED LAMO) Its the fastest standard IX engine and tubby hes been in.....whenever he takes it for a spin he comes back smiling LMAO

when we mapped it we had to check the torque figures three or four times as we thought it was slipping but nope she just loves the torque .

409/425 of happiness

I smile every time i start it up ha ha ha

not at the moment though..I grit my teeth as theres always something going UCKING WRONG !!

i thought a 2.2 should be up in the high 400s - mid 500's but it all depends on the map, etc, etc :thinking:

I'm going to go test drive the nine at the wkend.. carnt helped wanting the mr fq 400 I would like to know what sort of figures that would make on The rollers..

what turbo is the stroker running ?

an fp black is a 5-600bhp turbo but as said, fp turbos are unreliable

wasn't the IX fq360 MR supposed to be as fast if not faster than the VIII FQ400?
and i'd be wanting to know about receipts for the engine to prove its a 2.2 with good internals before i even went to look at it, it could be anything.

Doubt it mate, the 400 comes with forged internals as standard, they were hardly goin to sell a faster car on stock internals?

Your dead right, I'd want to see receipts too, otherwise forget about it :)
