R32 Tim 0 Posted May 8, 2008 Hi i'm new to this site but not a new Corrado owner, I've owned my Corrado for approx. 10 years now and i'm still not bored of driving it. In the last couple of years i thought it was time to make a few changes to the car such as wheels, suspension etc and more recently an R32 engine which was enlarged to 3256cc and fitted with individual throttle bodies, the noise and the acceleration is mind blowing, the car has been dyno'd at 328 bhp and 259 lb ft of torque. I could carry on listing the mods but i don't want to bore anyone. I look forward to joining in with some general chit chat. Thanks, Tim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carpoid 0 Posted May 8, 2008 Welcome to the forum. Someone posted a llink to a Youtube clip with an R32ed Corrado that sounds like yours not too long ago, sounded aewsome. Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted May 8, 2008 there's at least 2 guys on here who are well on the slippery slope to R32ing their rado's, and another thats already done it. they'll certainly be happy to hear about any of your experiences, as will the rest of us! :D "normally" (if you can put it that way ;)) aspirated 328bhp will certainly attract some attention 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KADVR6 0 Posted May 13, 2008 i offered to put some pics up for Tim, and i must say i'm very very impressed with the engine layout. i think i might be taking a trip down south soon 8) well done tim, the corrado is a beaut. i want to hear what an r32 sounds like with carbs. karl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted May 13, 2008 veeerrry nice - cosmetically i don't think the 24v engines suit the corrado very well with their modern looking manifolds and plastics - really good to see one without all that :luvlove: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
