[claymore]

So is the Peril the most powerful 850 in the uk, and if so what power did it eventualy produce, just want to know what I'm aiming for....lol

Well, if that's the most powerful, I should be at least 150bhp more by this time next year, which should easily make up for the extra weight.

You will have to hold on to your hat

Cat's out the bag now then, It will be a fantastic project and with plenty of the well known 'Claymore creativeness' thrown in no doubt !! Picking up the V70 next week so if there's anything else you might need off it Colin, just let me know mate

[M-R-P]

What are you up to now you loonatic?!?

[V70 Graham]

That must be a typo.....mustn't it ? You can't mean over 700bhp.....can you ?

It would explain the need for an AWD box.
The peril's power came in one huge, uncontrollable lump from what I've read. All that grunt through the front wheels is just gonna lead to a big cloud of smoke.

Could be a twin-engine set up ?.

Are we still talking with a Volvo engine, including the V8 one.

^^^^^^^What Harvey said^^^^^^ the lessons learned from the Volvaxo will be implemented in my car, tax runs out at the end of November, so the new project will begin

Oh this should be good.

One question tho Colin... With another engine in the boot, where are you gonna sleep?

i remember these cars as well, and jeffs bigdub from my vw days. awsome cars to say the least.
brentachre still use big dub for there performance insurance ad's.

i'll defanatly be following this one

[Biff]

My old boss Jeff Seddon owns big dub the twin engined vr6 turbo beast.
That's running over 800bhp & I will never go in a car that fast ever again.
Very clever on the gear linkages etc & hydraulic clutch mechanism. I never understood why the rear engine bump started though.
I'll never forget the change up on full boost in 3rd to 4th, felt like a smack it the back of the head when the bov went off behind my ear.
Awesome Colin, really looking forward to seeing this!!
Twin engined & both engines twin charged?

[T5frankie]

Nutter, still won't beat a 14.7 lol

[oblark]

591 bhp was done with one engine and a turbo, so having two engines that are turbocharged and supercharged doesn't count.
