I say try the Lo4xx and Loba flowed head with Rtech custom software.

Id be interested to hear how that went!!

Well it will have a stage 3 head - flowed and big valves. :happy2:

So you just need proper software then  :wink:

Also will most likely need.....

Arrow rods, Mahle or Loba pistons, Stage 2 intake, yet another downpipe, yet another intake, HPA DSG upgrades, oil cooler. etc

5..... maybe 6 minutes max!  :signLOL:

Do as you feel John... but I would seriously think about just buying a very fast car instead of ploughing money into a car that will never be as fast as you really want it to be.

It is all part of the fun Rich. Making a car fast is what it is all about. Just having a stock fast car isn't something I'm interested in. Even a Porker would end up getting "Hurdied". :evilgrin:

Another 100kg out of the R and another 100bhp on it should make it pretty rapid. :smiley:

John.
Been pondering your quarter mile requirements today and have a suggestion.
Rather than messing about with further turbos I suggest the following...

Through the free medium of BT Sport/ESPN I've been following the NHRA Nationals from the US.
Now John Force has just won his 16th Funny Car championship...so why not just buy his old car??

With some graphics alteration on the side instead of 'JOHN FORCE'.
You could add "Apostrophe S" onto the JOHN.
Then after FORCE you could add a "D".
Then you could perhaps get a graphic with the word "INDUCTION"
JOHN'S FORCED INDUCTION. See how good that looks..

Anyhow he won his final on Sunday in 4.1 seconds @ 316 mph I think it was.
Just might save you some tuning..

It's been a long day. Thinking outside the box.

But I'd look daft going up the high street at 300+mph in a funny car!  :driver:

You'd get the shopping done in no time...

But gotta admit parking the R outside the shops is probably easier. The steering lock looks pi$$ poor on a Funny Car.
Imagine trying to parallel park one of those..
