GT86-Ian 351 Report post Posted October 8, 2013 With all these options its very confusing what way to go :32 (33): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark-in-Stoke 488 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 I wonder how much this knocks off thr 0-62, anyone want to hazard a guess? and does it whine much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 It was estimated at 4.5 secs to 60 in EVO IIRC. However, it does look very appealing and a not to terrible price either. I do find it quite appealing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelerad 256 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 I wonder how much this knocks off thr 0-62, anyone want to hazard a guess? and does it whine much?Its a centrifugal supercharger (like a turbo but powered by a belt rather than an exhaust turbine) rather than a twin screw, which are the sort normally associated with the Mad Max whine (see http://auto.howstuffworks.com/supercharger3.htm), but on the next page it says it does whine as it spins up, http://auto.howstuffworks.com/supercharger4.htm whoops !Alec Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT86-Ian 351 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 I guess you have to add install to that price ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Duff 79 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Expensive, but in terms of the ratio between £'s spent and increased HP probably better value than most other performance mods out there. Mind you, I think you would also need to budget for some new 8/9" wide rims/tyres if you haven't already got them to make proper use of the gains, and then the price really does start to make your eyes water :eek: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Hmmmmm....does look good....fiitting won't be that much will it? And it won't be the same type or even as loud of a whine will it? I want a proper whine like the VXR Monaro :32 (37): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 This is the biggest problem with modifying. You end up increasing wheel and tyre sizes as well as grip levels. Then you upgrade the brakes and whatever else you are doing. You end up with a very quick car, but then you need to go so much faster to have the same fun.Slippery slope!

Mark-in-Stoke 488 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Lauren, As per usual you are bloody right!, FI is firmly put to the back of the list again, well for a while anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHOSENMAN007 81 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 After reading up on all the tuning packages i.e turbo from Fensport or a supercharger from Litchfield I think I will stay N/A! That is why I bought the 86 after all because of the revvy natural aspirated motor! Fun! Right!If I wanted forced induction I would of bought the closest rival (in terms of a real drivers car) the Renault Megane rs 265! Though a front wheeled drive car it still offers a real drivers feel! More power, torque and for retailing less dosh!But I bought the 86 because it gives you real world performance! You can spank it to the red within the legal limits whilst having a mega grin!I am a normal bloke not a Button or Hamilton and I wouldn't be chasing the best hot laps on the Track. (Just be on there for fun).I am not saying I would never consider either package in the future but for now I am loving my 86 the way it is!Just a few bolt on's will do! Tires, induction and maybe a exhaust will treat me right I say! I am certainly considering Litchfields 25BHP package. Still keeping it N/A too! Last point our GT 86's are Top Gear's car of the year 2012 for a reason!On the other hand different strokes for other folks lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
