After being Scoobyless for several years (sorry i've always been a Cosworth man through and through ) I ditched the RS500 and bought a Scooby again...

looks very tidy Shaun, shame the rs500 had to go though.

is that exhaust quite loud by any chance?

But Shaun, weren't you saying Scoobies were slow and any old TD could destroy one...
Should have bought yourself a Golf Mk5 TD.

 

just need to get the hayward and scott exhaust fitted to finish it off

 

Dave A,
Fairly loud..... but even louder if i'm in Chav mode and have the rear windows down!

Sith,
Best of both worlds......... when I feel the need for speed I just get the Golf out! lol No need in me getting a Mk5 TD, since my Mk4 GT TDi has been modded to give 195bhp and 285 lb/ft!

Shaun.

 

Isn't that "Prodrive Flow Forming".

 

maybe by free he means he got them free like the other bits

 

How does it compare with thr RS500?

 

Better on the twisties?!

Supertouring,
Sorry thats what I meant when I typed it (christ knows what I was thinking about at the time).

jb2000,
lol.... If only!

DJM,
Chalk and cheese mate!

The RS500 was 500bhp on a huge T4 turbo, so it was lagsville until just over 4k rpm and then 2.3 bar of boost until the redline at 7.5k. Couple that with RWD and it was a handle to say the least!

The RS500 handled very well..... but alas my driving experience (read bottle) did not allow me to throw it around like I would of liked.

Regards,
Shaun.
