Interesting - the comments say it's supercharged. Do you know of any more info about the car?

360beast · Feb 21st, 2012, 06:13

I don't know any more info on it I just saw the video and thought I would share it. I supposse you could contact the person who put the video up and see if he can tell you anything about it.

I was beginning to think that this was being done on a rolling road somewhere. Then I saw the last few seconds showing the actual road view. I hope the driver is well insured.

So true I wonder ho much his insurance went up when he told them the cars mods.

The speedo is in kph, 120kph = 70mph not really that fast, sounded as though it has had some modification done to achieve the initial fast acceleration.

You miserable gits! 0-60 in about 6s, its a damn good show for a 2l, 30 year old car.

You do not get 6s by gearing it down, you need about 200BHP. The car would probably do about 150MPH. My 940 does 140MPH on 11PSI, but its not good for it.

I hope to get about 6.5s with my 360 with a slightly boosted standard 940 2.3 Turbo engine in it.

I agree with TonyS9 that is very fast.
What engine are you using? B230ET, B230FT etc? I've bought an ET for mine and when I change the conrods to 13mm I'm gonna hopefully get a motronic chip (extra 60HP) to take it up to 242HP.

9mm rods are good to 300+bhp if you do it right

My 343 (B200 on sidedrafts, circa 150bhp) does 60mph in about 8s. I suspect a lightly boosted B230 (200bhp?) would drop a little below 7s.

cheers

James

I using a 96 B230FT, doesn't really need a chip, 200BHP is virtually free and getting close to the 360 drive capability anyway. The 940 does get a bit flat at high revs on 11psi, but I always thought that was due to exhaust restrictions. Probably should check the mixture sensor output. If you really want to modify go for a megasquirt.
