[Sloth]

[sulphur]

Looks mental. Any vids of it going?

Is there nothing between the rear engine and the driver, bar the back of the seat?

[sulphur]

Christ, bet that rattles your ear drums on full chat. Animal! :thumb:

[ed3112]

[sulphur]

lmao, no need for heaters then eh? Any more pics fella? Full spec?

[ed3112]

[calibra-keith]

2xgroup a carbs

will ad mur to 2moz

[ed3112]

just in the process of geting a carbon fibre seat
and a new set of samco hoses

[Plug]

new sets you mean lol

bet its very expensive having to buy 2 of everthing

[Will F]

not the best engines - and there's two of them!lol

I would have gone for 2x2L or 1.8 16vs, but I bet its funny.

Guessing that you bought it like that?

[ed3112]

yeh i no mate lol bein brought up with fives all my life so no them to the back of my hand yeh i did but the engines where as good as standard not far off

[Plug]

my mate currently rebuilding a Gourdino (how eva u spell it) R5 not 100% which one but all i know is the gearbox points out the front if u know what i mean

[L33 LEG]

thats just awesome. is that the real reg? if so, thats ace aswell.

[Jakey Boy]

Wow :eek:

Did you have any difficulty making it road legal?
MOT for example? Need an SVA test?
Just occured to me how have you decided to tax it, 1400 or 2800? :confused:

Also was it difficult to make a gear linkage to run between both boxes?
(Assuming your running two seperate drive-trains from the pics.)

[ed3112]

its nt road llegal but still take it out up the street yeh it is two gearbox slightly hard to get in first so needs ajusting bit more

[ed3112]

possibly planning on getting it road orthy

[Jakey Boy]

Not sure why I assumed it was road legal :tard:
Have you any interesting facts / figures like 1/4 mile times and speeds?

[ed3112]

i am planning on going usc and hoping it is going be finish
someone as estimated it as 1/4 time 10.9 11.0

[philip]

how much does it weigh? and is it running diffs? just that would be a quick time even with 500bhp. i know speckys tigra runs mid 11's iirc, and thats a touch over 500bhp abliet fwd!

[ed3112]

about 800kg about

[Jonlem]

Certainly different !

Sadly I have a hate for 5 turbo engines as I've known people with them to have nothing but problems and that includes GT and BB Tunings old cars lmao

That said and done its a cool build, any chance you could take some detailed shots of both engines and installation and the gear linkage ?

10.9 should be possible with 500hp but only if you get the launch perfect as thats where a car like that makes its times up.

[ed3112]

yh true mate its should be to hard get as a black r5 (scoffs bout 300bhp-400bhp)vag engine got 11.0 flat and thats just front wheel drive yeh will get some deailed shots up soon

[ben doodar]

where abouts in stoke u from mate? a mate of mine has a very quick 5 turbo, i can imagine thats pritty insane!

[Jonlem]

yh true mate its should be to hard get as a black r5 (scoffs bout 300bhp-400bhp)vag engine got 11.0 flat and thats just front wheel drive yeh will get some deailed shots up soon

That is due to the fact they run slicks ;)

On slicks with 800kgs and 500hp you will piss a 10.9 with a good launch but its much harder than it sounds :thumb:

[ed3112]

lol :) just brought two carbon firbe bucket seats light weight all the way

[sulphur]

Where's these other pics of interior etc? I like this :cool: lol

[ed3112]

will get some up of seats in 2moz as onli got them today

[BRoadGhost]

sadly 2 engines will never be "light weight all the way"

[ed3112]

trust me mate unbeliveable how light it is

[C7LJN]

Will never be road legal with both engines running. If you put it on the road by law you can only run 1 at a time

[ed3112]

ian (europarts motorsport) got is road legal but think he at to say the rear was for show but it was still on the road

[C7LJN]

ian nixon (europarts motorsport) who built the 1st ever twin engine got it all road legal is orange one

Yes i know i guy with a spaceframed 206 hotrod that is twin engined and road legal. But when on the queens highways must stick to just the 1 engine

[ed3112]

whats the queens highway roads lol

[BRoadGhost]

oh my

[ed3112]
