Rasher

16vmarc

the uk turbos that say prodrive on scoobyshootout, are they PPPs?

John banks has a 400hp MY00 and its quite nippy I think he's getting the engine capacity increased at the moment though so its currently got 0hp

16vmarc

im just askin really cos im sick of people sayin theyre crap!, mainly saxo and nova drivers i might add!!! theres not alot i think to match em like for like!!....

uksti

no they're absolutely correct - my scooby couldn't compete with a nova



























in lack of personality that is

misty

Rasher, how does the SO2 feel, compared to the 00?

Does it really bother you that much what other people say? One presumes that the majority of these comments will be motivated more by jealousy than any genuine technical appraisal of the various cars' capabilities, so why not just rise above it?

Failing that, simply stop hanging around with Saxo and Nova drivers...

greasemonkey

Question remains the same - why worry?

check out Harveys car in the Northern section, he made 533bhp at well lane turbo recently.

Mortywrx

I thought Harveys car was a Sti 6 not a UK? but Im sure David Wallaces car is a UK MY94 and not sure what he'll be pushing out but presume it is very fast.

I think you will find this is the most powerful uk scoob

All standard UK turbos should be doing 60 in 5-6 secs, and 100 in 14 ish (I think) - quicker than all but the most seriously modded Novas/Saxos, which will probably have had twice as much spent on them than a UK turbo anyway (and still be worth half the value of a UK turbo).
So you don't even need a modded UK turbo - a standard wagon will **** all over the cars you are talking about, every day of the week.

LG John

I'm sure John's is through the 400bhp barrier in which case that isn't the most powerful UK scooby

RB5SCOTT

But Johns is in bits and the engine is a little bit more breathed on

sg72

I've seen Johns hit 396bhp at STAR.

But had gone over 400 a few days before.

LG John

The question was what is the fastest UK in the country. It seems to have been answered How much its been modified is not relevant to the question. Should we just rule Harvey out of Import comparisons because he's got too much power and would win ?

new boy

there all great imo

but my 1st ,recently bought scoob is an my96 uk wagon...90k on it
it cost under well under 6k ..i've scooobyecu'd it (should be running 270+bhp unconfirmed as yet.(was r/roaded at 233 before chipping))

re the wagons..ugly yes..but it ran 13.84 at elvington scooby shoot-out,with a near full tank of gas and no octain booster(left at home-muppet) and my first time also
but it also hit 151.9mph on standing 1.25mile run
BUT even better..took it to on a booze run last week(to france)-filled to the gills with stella and spirits for xmas....still she pulled like a train...(the car that s!)
yep.the wagons are amazingly usefull bit of kit imo..

ps re elvington drag racing...bit disapointed.
got there in my mrs heels and slinky black dress..lippy,the works...and had any another bugger bothered to get dressed up...NO
...why not make the naming of the event more clear??
