slightly disapointed...Got whooped by a Locust RS
duckdown_hoodrat replied to Neokitz's topic in General Car Chat
Interesting. Is this from customers dynoing their cars, or an admission from Ford? A friend of mines works at a tuning place, a volvo specialist called hlm tuning, they are well known in the volvo "scene" and they do a lot of rolling road days etc. Basically when the new RS was released they were approached by a company who were using one as a demo car. They had hlm re-map it as the owner had written a hell of a lot of his own maps for volvos, and as the rs engine is effectively a volvo lump it seemed fitting. So after rolling it initially before any mapping it produced 270, fresh from factory. I'll see if i can dig out the video. I know different rolling companies claim different figures, but i doubt it to be out by 30bhp. Makes you wonder. -

The new rs comes out the factory with 270 bhp, not the claimed 300 bhp. Not doubting they are rspid as hell though, just trying to make everyone feel better -

I m terrible at photoshop. it confuses me no end. Right, now that's out the way does anyone fancy changing the wheel colour on my car? there are a couple pics in here, http://s1020.photobucket.com/home/duckdown_hoodrat i dunno if they're any good to you, and i could do with the wheel centres being this colour: http://www.clutchd.com/wp-content/galle ... ind-10.jpg and a metallic pink if anyone feels brave enough? I will buy the guy whos does them both colours a mars bar, inc postage :D Cheers, Dan
