www.boost-beast.de

go on the german site, and there are tons of vid to download. (just have to find the right page on the nav - as it's in german) as far as i know the english site doesn't hold the vids.

Then the english site has a spec list. however it's a very general spec.

phase 3.5 EDS
C20LET turbo
An Intercooler
some brakes
quite a bit of bhp

each engine only runs about 367bhp i think, so there's room for improvement.. 0-60 is something like 2.8 seconds.

Btw i've touched this car :-)

and it honestly looks like a peice of shit. Bumpers don't fit, theres cracks over them

the paint is peeling off, theres a big rusty dent in the roof e.t.c it wasn't even clean

and that was a year ago. but then again it's a monster

lol :-D

but you see 400bhp + LETs.

Afterall they are a company that specialise in vauxhalls , so i would have thought they'd beable to go to the extrememes due to free labour and very little parts costs.

deffo not as a show car, but a set of proper nova wide arches would have just finnished it off, and after all that expence on the motors, fitting a 250 quid set of arches is hardly out of there price range.

im sure ive seen a white nova with a 600 bhp let FWD under the bonnet somewhere. 2 of those would be amusing 1200 bhp anyone

the boost beast looked like it had been cleaned up when i saw it at trax last year.
it had a german/england flag painted on the roof. al so had a new air intake on one of the rear arches for the turbo.

when it was at mk meet last year, it did look rough as a badgers arse, but it looked loads better at trax.

that 600bhp let you were on about i am sure was from sweeden or some where around there.

Ive been in it ;)

cossvaux had the car for some time and i am mates with will, the car has had all the body work done, full respray, side vents, new stickers, fancy roof patern with 2 flags, the engines serviced and bits and bobs sorted and the gear linkage sorted all by cossvaux, the car is 10 times better than it was.
