I would expect around 3 secs to 60 with a good launch. Not had mine timed but got to be around that figure at circa 600bhp

Thanks Underworld.
Will be putting performance figures up in due course once the car is complete around March time.
With Launch Control active it has been suggested that 0 - 60 will be three point something ? and 0-60 & back to standstill in less than 6 seconds using the current brakes.

Have been informed that 0 - 100mph will be 7 point something ?

Hammer: another road going babe that can "bitch" Do you know Marti from Leicester ?, he has an awesome P1 running at your power stats.

Did you do the work yourself, or who built the lump ?

I am going twisted shortly but grip may be an issue, I guess you have that problem now ?
Marti's loses traction in 1st,2nd & 3rd (dry).
I lost traction once in 4th but, the roads were that shiny damp condition.

It's all Zen's work with parts supplied by Zen, Lateral and anything I could pick up second hand. Took 8 months this year but worth it in the end.

Grip was an issue on the strip as gearbox was stuck fully open until a few weeks back which meant on launch it would just spin the rears. This was sorted by Paul a few weeks back and it was then mapped for the final time. Unfortunately no chance to really test it on the strip yet at this time of year now I have the ability to lock the diff. Roll on 2009
