    Default stock VN 5.0 vs turbo charade, 85rwkw

    for the past 2 years my clapped out VN 5 litre has held the title of fastest car in the workshop. falcon 6's,v8 soarers, all have failed against the mighty holden.

    but now comes a new challenger, an upstart, a rice burner, and a baby one at that. a 1L turbo charade, with 85rwkw.

    the challenge has been made, but we wait while the mighty holden has it's box rebuilt. but then the call shall be made...

    "to willowbank ye' all, for the ultimate test - the quarter!"

    so what's the call? will i have a hope? will the mighty v8 charge half way down the quarter before the charade is even out of turbo lag? or shall the aging warrior fall, goliath to the challenging david?

    check out http://www.dairally.net/jason/mod-list.html to see what's been done to the charade.

    the stock figures are :

    CB-23 Natural Aspiration 996cc 30kw
    CB-60 Turbocharged 996cc 50.5kw
    CB-80 Turbocharged DOHC EFI 996cc 75kw

    flywheel, not.... well fwkw, not rwkw
