16v Turbo Video @ 178MPH...

Recommended Posts

Shamelessly nicked off the Vortex. You will not believe the way this thing pulls round the rev range.

Look on the left of the video when he's doing top whack at the kilometers ticking up.. he's covering 1km approx every 11 seconds. Insane!

Q: As we can't see the outside, just the clocks..... R/road or Autobahn?

 

Can you really imagine what holding onto a Rado would be like at 170+mph!

 

Am loving it, much like Wire's "stock" Grey Q car......

 

I'm off to hide my wallet in a very deep hole.. :D

Fookin mentalist! Love the way the speedo goes off the end of the numbers, but surely holding it at 7000k revs will knacker his engine?

that is impressive wish i finished building my 2.1 16v Turbo :(

 

oh well still got a 16v enigne and turbo flanges sitting in my garage lol

 

Mig's (G-tuned) on this forum should be hitting that kind of top speed as well but for someone using G60 ECU and wiring with Audi exhaust parts is very impressive

 

also 7000rpm for tuned engine is nothing ;) mine used to rev to 8000rpm no problems ;) (was fully balanced to the gram) I think from years ago there was a video of mine on AMD rollers and it just sounded like it went for ever :D still made 187bhp with ripped from enigne mount and gearbox mount, nothing to do with my carefully driving officer lol

Nice find Jim.

 

Shame he doesn't use the head to full effect by spinning it up a bit furthur.

 

Got to be 'on the road' as you can see a shadow from a bridge track around on the video.

 

Must be a G60 bottom end on that setup too.

When he goes into 5th his seems to gain huge amounts of speed for hardly any rev rise. There is absolutley no camera shake. Why hit the clutch @ vmax instead of lifting off? I'd be wanting lots of water and oil pumping at that point. Its not as if he is braking much.

Something about this vid doesnt sit well with me.
