just messing mate once rolling these beasts are hard to beat i once had a bentley continental gt come off a roundabout on the inside of me trying to undercut me so i floored it at 22psi and there was nothing in it he couldnt get past up to 90 ish then he had to slow for a car in front of him

**merc85** · Tuesday 27th December 2011, 17:40

He woulda deffinatly had me from zero, But like you say once our's are rolling the midrange grunt is hard to match.

He would still have beat you!!

**t5_monkey** · Tuesday 27th December 2011, 18:01

All the reviews say that VXR just doesn't feel all that quick once on a roll.

It's power to weight is about 170bhp ton - same as a bone stock remapped T5 - with all the 4WD friction and power train losses.
