Pig Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 what boost you running/ I would say it would be pretty similar at about 1.1 bar. I would like to the the supe had the edge but would possibly be wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the old wedge shape one though? surely the new ones are better than that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 surely they are better than that? nope, I had one and I have also owned an S2 TVR and while they sound like they are travelling at the speed of light (still love the sound) they are simple in technology and not that quick in standard format Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra_Nish Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I have the new T350 (05 plate to avoid confusion), stats that Lee posted. 0-60 in 4.4 or something, 0-100 is about 9.5 i think. I used to have a BPU supe with hybrids etc running at 1.1 bar. The T350 is very quick, definitely quicker of the line then the supe. Its a difficult car to drive however, and takes getting used to. In all honesty, the T350 will have a BPU supe from a standing start no problems. The acceleration off the line is not comparable, the car weighs just over a ton and revs to just under 8000. You will not make up the gap the T350 will pull from a standing start. From 60 or so upwards, it will be very close, the supe may have it due to its massive torque and ease of use. Twisties etc, forget it. The handling on the T350 is rock solid, no traction or ABS but its planted, has a full roll cage etc and good setup meaning the grip is phenomenal.
