450 BHP Nova??????

[Ben (lurk75)]

I dont know if anyone has seen the ad or the car. There is an ad in revs this month for a 2.5 V6 turbo Nova that is putting out 450 BHP, i really cant beleive this! Does it really exsist??????????

[djp_y2k]

If it does exist it wont for long. As soon as someone puts there foot to the floor the car will rip in half.

I would like to see it though.

[Ben (lurk75)]

thats exactly what i thought!

[paulrobo]

Buy it and let us know

[Ben (lurk75)]

Sod that it sounds like will be a right bodge job!

[barnes]

be honest, its someone taking the piss. you couldnt fit one turbo onto a 2.5 v6 in a nova there isnt the space let alone 2 turbos.

its a f_kin joke bitch, get a grip, daydreamer.

there will however be a 350bhp nova on the road in a couple of months though, so beware

[Ben (lurk75)]

Just saying what it said!

[barnes]

well whatever, but why beleive everything ya read like.

max power bhp figures are a joke, max power is a joke, oh whoopee paper mache bumper how fit, look at its smooth lines i want one there only 700 and give you an extra 9bhp blah blah blah blah

[Ben (lurk75)]

I dont belive it that is why i was doubting it! and it was in revs not max power!

Your quite right though i can remember some guy who had a XR2i with sod all done to the engine who said it was 170 BHP!!!! and would do 140mph. lmao

[?Marty?]

It's fuckin real chaps. The guy is from Barnoldswick and is called Brett. The Bonnet has a raised section to accommodate the turbos underneath. It also has Golf Mk3 headlights, 18's and etc. It's mad. Then again i could be lying. (He does have a 2.5 engine in his Nova though, didn't know about the turbos).

[Ben (lurk75)]

ok just looked at the ad again! looks like a loads of bollacks

[Ric 16v]

that 2.5 v6 is feh smart except for the golf headlights and the bonnet, theres loads of pics of it and its engine on www.novamad.co.uk theres also a small video clip of it on a site somewhere when hes reving it, souns realy nice !!!!!!

[barnes]

one air filter yet its got 2 turbos, one stage 4 cam when its a quad cam engine, twin 45's when it would need 3 45's.

[Ste_Nova]

i went out in a 330bhp nova yesterday...... beleve me you don't need any more power!!!

[CP]

Lmao! Reminds me of a wind up letter I read in CCC many moons ago when the Sierra Cossie 500's first came out. Every other letter and article in all the mags was about what could be done to get extra power. The levels rose rapidly over 300hp and then to 400 and 450hp. Finally this character wrote in with the first 550hp cossie. He knew his stuff and detailed the full spec of piston, crank, turbo changes etc etc and ended up with the total at 500hp. So, he asked, where had he achieved the xtra 50hp from? The answer lay in brand new variable compression technology which was able to to provide more compression at higher revs through the use of????................. elastic conrods! Lol! :lol: :lol: :lol:
