Matt if you don't lust after this, you no longer live for the 306!!!

Shit the bed............ absoloutely fantastic

[4WayDiablo]

Looks lovely and 300+bhp sounds fun!

[Pompey306mark]

Looks amazing. Bet that goes very well too.

[devils_fuel]

Love the Ferrari breaks, a fun toy really but why oh why a DT gearbox

[Scott]

Pure porn.

I imagine that the ratios make it quicker to accelerate?

[devils_fuel]

True but you'd be on the redline at 60mph

[Curt]

Wow, that looks incredible

[Matt]

:I shit the actual f*cking bed!!!!! That thing looks mental! T16 engine.... Daymn....


So when are we usin donations to buy me this?

[cwspellowe]

Hmm, that's not a T16. Mi16 Turbo maybe, but no T16.

**EDIT just read the description. Why would you fit a GTI6 manifold to a genuine T16 engine? :think:

[Grant]

A atcually just shat my whack looking at that!

I'm ringing the bank in the morning! Lol

[Ed Doe]

True but you'd be on the redline at 60mph

nope.


Think about it, if in 2nd gear youre doing 20mph at 2k, and 40mph at 4k, at 7k youre doing......

That statement above is largely a generalisation, but in essence the gearbox on a dt is waaaay longer, as you only have a short 'powerband' on a dt.

Therefore, it's actually a good idea on a high torque turbo engine, long gearing means you'll make the most of the mahoosive torque spread throughout the rev range.

fyi the reason the rotrex kids dont do this is because the rotrex is effectively a torque multiplier, ie it miltiplies the peak torque at any given rpm by a factor 'x'. meaning you still get quite a peaky power delivery, which is still well suited to a close-ratio box like the '6 box.

nope.

Ignore me, im tired and retarded. Didn't realise you said 2nd gear

[Scott]

Either that or he just thought "well they've both got turbo in the name so it must be what I need. Wonder what the 'D' stands for though?"



Wait, did Chris just out adenoid Mr Edoenoids himself?!

[Anton]

Dturbo box is longer so it will have higher gearing, like Ed said probs to use all the torque.

If a dturbo is doing 70 in 3rd at about 4200 what's It doing at 7k?

[Ed Doe]

nope.

It was an example Smartypants! I can't remember what 2nd gear is like on a dt!!

From hazy memory though, if you're doing 50 at 2k and 80 at 3k in 5th on a dt box, what speed are you doing at 7k?

LOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGG Ratios!!!! *looks smug*

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Mr Edoenoids

YES!






Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Ehh.. didn't know the DTub box was CVT? 50 at 2k and 80 at 3k? Progressively longer gears? Magic :geek:

Peugeot's magical engineers. Passive rear wheel steering ftw.

oh alright, 3200, as I said, I'm doing this from memory, I havent driven a dt in nearly 2years!!! Though i'll admit that's a bit of a schoolboy error... :roll:

Unexpected from you normally sir
