I see lot's of posts about using old V8 technology or Suby technology or Rotary technology.
What about brand spanking new technology??? The Ford Ecoboost Motor is a twin turbo V6, with HP and Torque for rear wheel use. It's flat throws you back into the seat of a 5000lb truck, and in the Tarus SHO it's 0-6- in 5 seconds. Air jacket cooling on the turbo and oil cooler built onto the motor. It would be fun to see some development of modern motors into a 914. What other new motors might we be looking forward to?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Attached image(s) |

Not this motor. This is a 4 banger with supercharging or Turbo Whipping.
The Vanagon crowd is using this version for Synchro as well as 2 wheel drive hill climbing. There's also a Youtube video of a Subie passing their Beta vehicle. The guys were filming as the WRX owner freaked out when the Vanagon sped up and caught him. Talk about bragging rights - must have embassed the hell out of the Subie guy... Go to Bostig.com - yes, shameless plugging - my apologies... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |
