Ok I'm a little confused as to why your torque has now apparently dropped to only 430Nm as that converts to 317 lb ft ...  :confused:

Thats bang on the money there Dom.  

Irrelevant of figures, its bloody savage.  The new engine mount/new exhaust (not sure which one) has really made a huge difference in the refinement inside the car.  The suspension whilst still stiff seems to be alot better now its been raised by alex, it was really bad before.  Another 5mm and it'll be perfect for the humps where we live  :innocent:

The diff seems to work as well.  Ive not driven it ...yet, but it seemed to spit mike out the corner faster than he expected hence some scary lift off oversteer :driver:

@Mike, if you go PDT tomorrow ill come up with you in our motor :happy2:

Diffs are awesome. Though keep the power on through corners and let the diff do the work. I miss my RS Focus for the cornering fun and roundabouts. Me thinks a new lower mount is on the books plus BTCC in two weeks time :happy2:

Sorry Dan.  Just spotted this...

I haven't really given it a proper drive yet but the one instance I did (as mentioned above) I was taken by surprise by the speed I gathered exiting the roundabout  :driver: 

Do you have the hi torque version of the peloquin Dan?  I was worried I might have bought mine in haste not realising there was a hi torque version till after.

The car feels great after Alex has tweaked the chassis.  Steering feels weighted but direct. Just need to bin the stop gap falkens for the R1Rs in the shed....
