yeah but the old 2.7 twin turbo V6 is much better to mod. Stock 280kw, my uncle has around 350kw in his, and there is plenty of potential for more its just a matter of how much you wanna spend. But the NA v8 is great and i wouldn't mind one but for ppl that wanna mod them it ain't as good.

Quote:

The V8 delivers 420bhp and peak torque of 430Nm.
Though the peak occurs at 5500rpm, 90 percent of the torque is available between 2250rpm and 7600rpm.

back in the old days 'modding a motor' meant more performance.. it is arguable that with this level of factory development, there is little to be gained by modding them...

430Nm from 4.2L is more than most modded motors get (NA Wink

) and to have 90% of torque over a 5350rpm range is pretty bloody good!! what more could you want from NA (apart from turbo Razz

)

Cya, Stewart
