    Col
    So what you saying is the "Hottest hatch in Town" is the only problem??

    So with an exhaust/Intake/FMIC and snake oil chip you get,

    0-100 = 4.5??
    400m = low 12s??
    250-260kw??

    ohh & these look legit

    theoretically 300km/h ++ ??
    650 NM ??

    and to top it off you have 20-30kw more than the rest of us?? with zero dyno??

    Man , what have the rest of us done wrong??

    Gotta agree with Magoo, i read the figures twice & thought the journalist MAY have been exagerating.
    With numbers like that it would have to be one of the fastest 3MPS's in the world.......
    Dont get me wrong Col, there is NO DOUBT it would be quick, but id say matching the numbers quoted in the article may be a S T R E T C H ......

    So what he forgot to say was that these figures are at the flywheel?

    Saying that, I have 270kw at the flywheel then.

    And the near doubling of torque 380nm - 650nm??

    Come-on this whole story is a joke.

    Look I hate to be a jerk and I have no interest in beating someone down, but this whole story is ridiculous.

    What is the wheels to flywheel conversion for torque and Kw?

    Of an MPS, not any other car. Is it around 15%?

    190Kw 380nm std @ flywheel =

    160Kw-ish @ wheels

    Thats about right.

    So how exactly does he have 20kw more than the next guy, and with no data whatsoever to back it up.

    The torque figure/Performance claims etc are plain stupid.

    Some people get a little excited when some attention comes their way.

    I've never claimed to have more power than anyone. I know a lot have more power than me, but, I think I have the most Nm @ wheels. I still don't care. I've got the fastest and quickest MPS (In Aus and until proven otherwise)

    Look m8 the only joke here is yourself and your ego ! Col has stated many times that the journalist didnt put in any of the figures that Col gave him.

    If you've got nothing useful to say suggest you keep it to yourself in your lounge room Change you profile pic your ruining a good japanese cartoon character, good old 'Domo'

    Angry Get your head out of your arse magoo !!!!!!

    Ok MR MAGOO doesn't my statement that I will get madaz dyno'd and post the results on the forum soothe your battered EGO .The power figures were converted to flywheel rating by the mechanic that works on the car I had no control over what they published . If the figures are wrong I apologize and Troy my car has been timed over the 1/4 mile but by stop watch only the nearest drag strip is 440klm's away but I will get there next year and another thing my car is set up for circuit and hill climbs I personally don't give a rats arse about the 1/4 mile anybody can drive in a straight line for my money the fastest car is the car that can get from a to b which includes corners for example MR MAGOO',2XS and YOU LOSE around Nuremberg Ring the winner could rightfully claim the fastest MPS a combination of all driving conditions . I only agreed to the article in the first place to get publicity for the motor show next year and once again I never claimed Madaz is the quickest MPS . I have a challenge for MR MAGOO and 2XS or any one else who has a bruised ego put up $5k each hire a race track for a day and we will settle this once and for all . The next time I do an article I won't bother to post it on the forum .And for the record I think there are those who are jealous of those who are achievers. You have totally missed the point of what I was tying to accomplish . By the way MR MAGOO I think I'm capable of containing my EXITEMENT whilst being interviewed by the media I have raced karts for a long time winning many national and state tittles I am used to the attention !!! GET OVER YOUR SELF go and have a bex and a lie down you will feel a lot better !!!!!

    $5k for a track day, WOW. They only cost $150 a day down here in Brisbane.

    I've never questioned your "estimated" figures. It would have been nice to be told that the figures were @ the flywheel.

    I call bull on the 20kw over and above everyone else but. This would mean you need to have 310Kw @ the flywheel to be this "suggested" figure.

    The perfect way to prove traction and power is at the qtr mile drags. Circuits/tracks are designed to show driver skill.

    The only difference between straight line and cornering is a wheel alignment on my car. You have nothing better than me fitted to your car. You must be a really good driver then. I'm up for any challenge.

    The "@ the flywheel" comment was because you didn't specify. All my figures are quoted as @ the wheels, because this is where the dyno reads.

    I couldn't care less if someone has a go at me (or my car) I've proven myself and what power my car puts out.
