    Yeah have watched that one many times. And since I was on a public road I did have to keep it seemly. Well not be dumb enough to post it on you tube anyways. Hate to be thought of as a boy racer Evil or Very Mad

    Should sound even better at the next track day.

    Need to get a few of the T series together and run them down a straight some where.

    Would be an awesome sight and sound.

    I only know of a few T3's around here and a couple of T2's.

    Also two beautiful silver ones owned by husband and wife in Fielding one TE and one TS.

    Good Figures. These Motors just seem to pull from everywhere. I was worried that it felt to slow compared to the Turbo but its just the flat pull it has. Love it more the more I drive it Twisted Evil

    Yeah but you can still floor it and be within the legal 50 or 100kmh speed limit with a manual it would be easier to do and it'll still sound wicked. Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

    Imagine what a CD with nothing but the sound of a Windsor V8 on it and your playing it through your sound system with a good amp and sub. Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

    It sure does mate...............Either spend $7 on a supercharger or around $7-$10k on an engine transplant.........But why transplant the engine when its only done 50ks and not too many people have a supercharged AU XR8 Ute, mind you not too many people have a 347cc AU XR8 Ute either...........Still the supercharger sounds too good to say no to.

    Sounds reasonable to me mate. Dry ground needs extra power to work as it is harder..

    Just shame you need a ringfeeder on the ute to pull the driller.

    Well with the price of fuel and fert going up it costs more for both so I have to put the supercharger on the Ute so that I can cart the 150 tons of fert that I use in the season..............That would be a primo excuse I reckon.....Tell the accountant that it will pay for itself in 3yrs too.
